At the same time , tries to account for the contradictions and diversity of art in the age of globalization, cultural, political and temporal understanding which we live precisely under a wide stratification temporalities premodern , modern and postmodern .
The works are gathered here as indeed the Kubler , "a part of an event or an emanation stopped last time ." The events of these pieces are on one hand off inherent in them : The time and place , the transience of a moment crossed by the disappearance ghostly footprint as a stratification time or distance , memory and recall as pictures history or blurred over time as matter.
