Published to coincide with Cyprien Gaillard’s exhibition "HUMPTY \ DUMPTY", presented simultaneously at the Palais de Tokyo and Lafayette Anticipations, the catalogue comprises two volumes: a photographic collection of the works in situ and a collection of texts exploring the artist’s approach.
A conversation between Cyprien Gaillard and Rebecca Lamarche-Vadel introduces a series of essays devoted to time, entropy and the traces left by humans in the city. The book highlights the tension between ruin and repair, destruction and care, and includes descriptions of the works on display.
