For over 40 years Canadian artist Liz Magor has been scrutinising the way we relate to ordinary objects previously indispensable but now forgotten, to which she gives a fresh twist. The MAMAC’s 1200m² retrospective presents a selection of pieces she has created since 1989, which override “the static nature of sculpture, in particular by investigating the border between real and simulated: I spend hours creating objects that I previously considered unaesthetic and insignificant [...]. What interests me is the influence of the fabricated on the found.”
