Musée de la
FRAGMENTATION
L’art contemporain et la vie, fragmentés.
Tous les aspects de la vie humaine sont aujourd’hui soumis au phénomène massif de la fragmentation. L’art contemporain est devenu le reflet de cette expérience fragmentée du réel.
Le Musée de la Fragmentation s’intéresse à cette condition essentielle de notre époque. Conçu lui-même comme une structure fragmentée — et comme une œuvre d’art à part entière — le musée explore la manière dont les pratiques artistiques contemporaines reflètent, interrogent et transforment cet état du monde.
Son médium principal est cOntemporary Art TV, diffusé à travers l’abonnement sur YouTube et les réseaux internet internationaux.
