»Cosmos«, 2001. Two hundred empty video boxes are arranged on 40 linear metres of shelving. The jackets, borrowing from a very imaginary film genre, are all different, but each film is invariably titled Cosmos and made by Boris Achour. Each credit associates the most heterogeneous names: actors, artists, writers, philosophers, as well as close friends of Boris Achour. The title borrows that of a Witold Gombrowicz novel, self-described as “an attempt to organize chaos”. The piece is an adaptation of a novel in the form of a sculpture.
