Kind : ebook

(0 ratings)
"In the exhibition “Kissing Circles,” mounir fatmi presents a photographic series inspired by the kiss in the film Casablanca, a series he has been working on for several years, and perhaps, unconsciously, ever since his childhood, when he first lived in Casablanca, and the kiss… In fatmi’s kisses a thousand references converge, notably the kiss that recently excited two young lovers in Morocco and the whole of their country with them, implicitly asking these questions: are a kiss and its representation to be condemned? Should they be censored? And a thousand obsessions, too: fatmi’s obsession with beauty, with black and white, with archives, science and poetry. “The Kissing Precise,” writes mounir fatmi, “connects a Hollywood kiss and the film of my adolescence with my combined obsessions with mastery and poetry, including a winner of a Nobel Prize for Chemistry, a geometry of feelings, a surprising poem about circles touching and, finally, two young Moroccans who, with their love, threw a whole society into tumult, and the world in which I live. Yes, everything is desire, everything is poetry, everything is science, everything is art and, finally, everything is politics.” "
