Into the maelström
Swiss art awards, Basel, june 2011
"Into the maelström" is a prefiguration of the investigation based on Edgar Allan Poe's maelström, conducted with Sandrine Teixido since December 2012. In Basel, the structure of Poe's tale was already translated into a fictional, architectural assembly, and certain protagonists – such as Norbert Elias, Annie Taylor and Fritz Eichenberg – also appear for the first time.
