Nothing makes more sense in life than a football match.
Football itself is already a perfect art form. This exhibition, dedicated to the World Cup in Russia, wants to be a tribute, a special history, a point of view as well as a testimony, an interpretation and a fantastic vision.
The selected artists make up an imaginary football team, and each has been placed in a better area to strongly express their characteristics and abilities.
You can hear the smell of freshly cut grass in the suburban fields, the sound of metal blades, the harsh applause on the steps that make you look up at the lights in your metaphysical arena; then the whistling begins to break the silence before the battle.
