Description:
This work gives a reading of the exhibition which is "other". An interview and a set of informative photographs, functioning like a logbook, give an account of what "l’Autre" means to Harald Szeemann.
In parallel with an account of his approach, the works he has chosen are reproduced.
Finally, two philosophical visions on the theme of "l’Autre" provide a means of situating this approach.
