Serge Spitzer
Born in 1951 in Bucharest (Romania). Lives and works in New York (USA)."Re-Search, Bread and Butter with the ever present question of How to define the difference between a Baguette and a Croissant" (1995-97), a site-specific installation.
For Lyon, the artist has adapted a project that dates from 1995. With assistance from two firms, Aérocom and Böhm, he has installed a system of pneumatic transport in the extraordinary architectural surroundings of the Halle Tony Garnier, presenting the paradox that it is at the same time operational and irrational in its structure.
