DANS LA CHALEUR DES CONCEPTS

Video Installation - Forest of Munich - 1988

Virtual Gallery

Stéphan Barron puts a TV set showing fire, in the middle of a forest.

Fire symbolizes the domination of man over nature (a reference to Prometheus) and the possible danger of technology for man's survival.

Is technology salvation or destruction?

The line between these two extremes is very thin, but nevertheless, mankind's future lies in the answer of this question.
