- The Norwegian artist Børre Sæthre is known for his art installations that remind the viewer of the settings of science-fiction films. His latest installation that has just opened at Mudam Luxembourg is called Untitled (Wardenclyffe Tower). The title is derived from the eponymous tower by the famous inventor Nikola Tesla. With the Wardenclyffe Tower, Tesla wanted to test the transmission of information and energy without connection cables. Tesla wasn't able to complete his project because of financial problems and the tower was destroyed in 1917.
The installation at the Mudam is a black space that is dominated by a mirror dome and wall that reflect a stroboscobic light and an intense sound. The setting is completed by a head-like sculpture hanging from a rope and a table with monitor that shows a man hurling bolts.
The exhibition, curated by Clément Minighetti runs from February 11 to May 6, 2012.
