Op vier naast elkaar opgestelde stoelen tekent zich de kustlijn van de Rode Zee af. De zee geldt hier als metafoor voor het samenbrengen van verschillende culturen en ze bemiddelt op die manier tussen landen, talen, politieke idee\u0026euml;n en religies. In samenwerking met de Colombiaanse kunstenaar Juan Sandoval bewerkt Pistoletto een bestaand type stoel tot iets dat balanceert op de grens tussen kunst en design, tussen installatie en functioneel object, tussen land en zee. Op deze stoelen dient de grens niet om te verdelen, maar om te verbinden.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp\u003eEn 1994, Michelangelo Pistoletto \u0026eacute;crit le manifeste \u0026nbsp;\u003cem\u003eProgetto Arte\u003c/em\u003e : il plaide pour un art engag\u0026eacute; o\u0026ugrave; les artistes r\u0026eacute;fl\u0026eacute;chissent au r\u0026ocirc;le qu\u0026#39;ils jouent dans la soci\u0026eacute;t\u0026eacute; et prennent leur responsabilit\u0026eacute;.
