During the 1970s, Marc Camille Chaimowicz’s approach to performance, at a time when the norm was a more or less a political or corporeal engagement, was a lighter, more poetic concern with impermanence and evocation. His early performances were opportunities for spectators to negotiate their relation to art, and to reflect on their own position. More recent installations bring together “choreographed” interior spaces with wall papers, prints and furniture, blurring the lines between craft and fine arts, design and art object.
This publication takes the form and layout from an issue of The World of Interiors magazine, the same issue in which the artist appeared in his South London apartment. A montage of the artists prints, collages, installation images and texts inserted into and laid over the original publication.
