NEON TALKS | THOMAS HIRSCHHORN | CAVEMANMAN | DREAM ON

NEON presents a talk by Swiss artist Thomas Hirschhorn followed by a conversation with art historian Dimitris Paleocrassas.

Cavemanman is an immersive installation, a labyrinthine, life-size “cave” made from everyday materials, wood, cardboard and tape. An environment representing the collective mind, created from books, posters, videos, shelves, beverage cans and dolls.
