Christopher Williams and Fred Sandback exhibit at Museum Morsbroich

LEVERKUSEN.- The exhibition “Christopher Williams. For Example: Dix-Huit Leçons Sur La Société Industrielle (Revision 15)” comprises more than 20 photographic works by this artist, who was born in Los Angeles in 1956. The presentation at Museum Morsbroich, which alludes to the book Dix-Huit Leçons Sur La Société Industrielle (Industrial Society: 18 lessons, 1964) by Raymond Aron published in France in 1962, is part of an exhibition series which the artist began in 2005 and has since continued consistently in the most diverse international institutions and museums. The exhibition combines new works, and some which are being shown for the first time in Germany, with older photographs which are already part of the body of 18 lessons. The arrangement of the works takes into account the particularity of the respective exhibition venue. An essential importance is attributed to the exhibition site and
