Press Release
The Fountain Archives 2008-2017
Since 2008, Saâdane Afif has been collecting books and magazines reproducing Fountain, referencing them in an archive being presented here for the first time in the form of an installation bringing together framed works, sculptures and songs'lyrics, written for the occasion by different personalities. By appropriating the methodologies of the patrimonial inventory, and playing with traditional museographic codes, Afif questions the status of the work, its reproducibility, and the endless field of its interpretations, as well as its amazing propensity to produce narrative.
