Manifesta 12 Palermo — collateral event
Talpe. Well Said, Old Mole
From Gilles Clément’s essay The Planetary Garden: the mole, which works underground moving the soil, as a metaphor for those who attend to the neglected and hidden aspects of the real — artists working under a pseudonym, with long research outside the demands of the market.
