Wim Delvoye's installations, sculptures, and personal collections engage in dialogue with the MAH archive and collection.
For the fourth time, the Musée d'art et d'histoire de Genève (MAH) has awarded a Carte Blanche-in 2024 to the Belgian artist Wim Delvoye. The museum's collection and archives enter into an exchange with Delvoye's installations and sculptures, with his own collections of everyday objects and media images. Delvoye questions the boundaries between art and everyday life and immerses us in a playful abundance of objects, references and interventions.
The catalogue reflects his free association of ideas and feelings. Delvoye tears the objects out of our perceptual routine and gives them a new shine-an approach that this virtuoso of hybridity himself describes as "elegant vandalism."
