description

Described by Caroline Schneider in Artforum Magazine's May 2000 issue: "Under the aegis of the Purple Institute, 'a record label for the field of contemporary creation' - leave it to the French! - Elein Fleiss and Olivier Zahm apply the same fashion-fiction-sex formula that won attention for their Paris-based magazine Purple to an exhibition of works by some fifty artists and musicians exploring the subject of dreams. A series of pavilions will house creations by participants as diverse as Gerhard Richter, Sandra Cinto, and Alex Bag, accompanied by a sound track that boasts contributions from Sonic Youth, Tom Verlaine, and Jim O'Rourke... A CD accompanies the 400-page illustrated catalogue, wholly unencumbered by text."
