Pierre Huyghe - If the Snake

Installation and sound artist Pierre Huyghe leads his colleagues through a labyrinthine, liminal exhibition across Okayama

As Artistic Director of the 2019 Okayama Art Summit, artist Pierre Huyghe (born 1962) convened 18 artists to create a labyrinth of interventions across the city. From sappy pink swimming pools to woodland video installations, Huyghe and his collaborators transform everyday locations into liminal spaces, turning a walk through the city into a constantly fluctuating journey. Together, the entity of this "snake" of artworks alters the city of Okayama through invisible presences, different intelligent forms and chemical, biological and algorithmic processes. This artist's book assembled by Huyghe includes conceptual text and images that guide the reader through the exhibition's experience. Artists include: Tarek Atoui, Matthew Barney, Etienne Chambaud, Paul Chan, Ian Cheng, Melissa Dubbin, Aaron S. Davidson, John Gerrard, Fabien Giraud, Raphael Siboni, Elizabeth Henaff, Eva L'Hoest, Fernando Ortega, Sean Raspet, Lili Reynaud-Dewar, Pamela Rosenkranz.
