How to reach the Museum

​

Artists have always questioned memory, this ability to rescue from oblivion stories buried in silence, erased or failing. The desire to retain memory of fleeting visions or phenomena has very often been a powerful driving force behind artistic creation. Likewise, aesthetic emotion generates the irrepressible desire to remember it through art. But memory, even revisited by art, is not the cult of the past, but re-creation; the capacity for memory is not a repository of memories, but a dynamic process, in perpetual change.
