Book of Meat
Installation View
1978-79
Translated, this image reads: “Book of Meat: The reading of this book was based on the cut/knife action of the butcher on the meat, the sectioned fibers, the fissures, etc. etc., as well as the different tonalities and coloration. In conclusion, it’s important not to forget to mention the temperatures, sensorial contact (of the fingers), social problems, etc. etc. Enjoy your read.” In the exhibition, a meat notebook (to be replaced at intervals during the exhibition) will be displayed with the slides projected in series, related notebooks (archival objects and accessible facsimilies), and other related photographs and films.
