SWARM
Inventory
19.10.2024
The Salon by NADA & The Community · Paris
Giselle’s Books presents a reactivation of a historical work by the British collective Inventory. Swarm was first introduced as an installation in 1999 during CRASH! Corporatism & Complicity, a group exhibition at London’s Institute of Contemporary Art. It consists of a body of fifty adhesive prints of propaganda, rants and calls to protest, which are expected to be gradually removed from the exhibition space and scattered in the streets.
Swarm is particularly representative of Inventory’s practice, which is concerned with discursive art forms, usually deployed through texts and essays, as in their eponymous journal published between 1995 and 2005.
