Free talk: Boltanski, "Monument to the Lycée Chases"
When: Sun., Aug. 18, 2-3 p.m. 2019
"Monument to the Lycée Chases" is part of a series of works Boltanski began in 1987, inspired by a found photograph of the 1931 graduating class from a private Jewish high school in Vienna, Austria. His re-photographed images are mere silhouettes or intimations of corporal presences that together comprise a moving meditation on loss and endurance.
