Cai Guo-Qiang : Travels in the Mediterranean
A film by Gilles Coudert
(26 min. / 2011)

In Gilles Coudert‘s film, we witness the creation of a huge drawing by Chinese artist Cai Guo-Qiang “Travels in the Mediterranean”, designed with gunpowder. From the preparation of the drawing through the firing in the old slaughterhouses to its installation at the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Nice, we follow the realization of this 28-meter-long fresco specially created for its exhibition which echoes a gigantic wreck stranded on a heap of ceramic.
