This display is a combination of text, a photograph and objects. It was made for the exhibition Le ragioni della leggerezza (Reasons for Lightness) in 2004 at Galleria Franco Soffiantino in Turin, Italy. It reveals us one of Jimmie Durham’s fascinations in his art-making process, namely the friction which can be caused when putting together language and image.
