Timer 1

Artists play a fundamental role as mirrors of society and can, in particular, give expression to specific corners of the world in our global economy. They observe them, metabolise them, transform them and render them a visible and concrete part of our culture.
Timer I presents the works of eighty international artists from all generations. The overarching theme of this volume is "Intimita/Intimacy" and deals with the relationship the artist has with him/herself in the age of the telecommunications revolution. All works date from after September 11th 2001: a date forever stamped in our memories and a turning point in our history. Timer 1 explores the interior spaces of a new social context created after the attack on the Twin Towers.
