Книга «Pavlo Makov. Fountain of Exhaustion. ACQUA ALTA». Автор - Сергій Жадан

The catalogue to the Ukrainian Pavilion at the 59th International Art Exhibition in Venice relates the history, different contexts, and varying interpretations of Pavlo Makov s The Fountain of Exhaustion over the years. The exhibition is the first time the work, originally conceived in 1995, has ever been displayed as a fully functional art object. Featuring a comprehensive chronological account of the Fountain s development up to the present time, the book also includes a selection of archive materials illustrating the work s evolution. Its spatiotemporal connotations reflect on water, rivers, and channels, overflow and desolation, personal landscapes, and the pressing global issues of today.
