Bringing silent cinema and time-based art together for the first time in a city defined by film, this experimental presentation initiates a rare cross-disciplinary dialogue, dismantling hierarchies between art forms and dissolving the boundaries between visual art and cinema, museum and theater, white cube and black box. In doing so, it traces the evolution of visual storytelling over the past century, revealing how our ways of seeing and of being seen, continue to shift, refract, and renew.
Unfolding across six floors, What a Wonderful World presents groundbreaking works by artists such as Marina Abramović, Cyprien Gaillard, Arthur Jafa, or Lu Yang, alongside cinematic milestones by Luis Buñuel, Walt Disney, Alice Guy-Blaché, Winsor McCay, and Georges Méliès. Together, these works form a panoramic and layered portrait of humanity across 120 years; altogether ironic, sincere, critical and compassionate.
