Whether sloping upwards or downwards, the automobile is an ambivalent machine in the imagination of the Alps. Its presence in the region and in our daily lives unrolls paths where cultural, historical and technical narratives are intertwined in a polyphony. With no mess, no waste, the exhibition is inspired by the space of the car wreck, whose purpose is deconstruction. Placed at the center of attention, the ordinary car is deconstructed to understand differently what it says.
The automobile is a cornerstone of modern life, in the mountains too. It's part of our lives, which isn't so trivial at a time when decarbonizing mobility and our imaginations is a way of projecting ourselves into the future.
