Aline Alagem – Director’s Cut | 1.7.16 – 30.7.16

Monkey_acrylic, spray and industrial colors on canvas_140x172cm_2014It starts with a paradox: Aren’t highways the opposite of furniture? Movement, fluidity, itinerancy. Highway Furniture is the name of the joint exhibition by Alona Harpaz and Bettina Allamoda. But even being on the move requires a setting, needs objects and images.
