Description

Bettina Pousttchi: Metropolitan Life is a monograph that explores the work of German-Iranian artist Bettina Pousttchi. Her large-scale installations investigate the history and memory of places, exploring connections between time and space from a transnational perspective. The book features Pousttchi's most recent installation at the Nivola Museum in Orani on the Italian island of Sardinia, which reflects on the Metropolitan Life Building located on Madison Avenue in Manhattan. This building, completed in 1909, was criticized for its Italian references and displays a hybrid identity that Pousttchi highlights. The book is accompanied by an essay by art historian Greg Foster-Rice and a conversation between Pousttchi, critic Hans Ulrich Obrist, and architect Markus Miessen.
