This thematic exhibition addresses the labyrinth’s relationship to walkthrough, meandering and loss, situating their representations within contemporary art. Unfolding as a guided experience, the exhibition explores the notion of the labyrinth as rhizomatic thought and urban modernity’s sites for drifting. “Erre” gathers different generations of international artists with historical works from the collection of the Musée national d’art moderne, Centre Pompidou. The exhibition also includes new commissions and covers 2000 sq. m of exhibition space.
