In the exhibition “This Place is Close and Unfolded” at Westfälischer Kunstverein the Scottish artist Martin Boyce (*1967) is dealing once again with references to Modernism. A photography in a book about french gardens of Modernism is the basis and an important source for Boyce’s recent works. It shows four trees made of concrete, designed by Joël and Jan Martel for the Exposition des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, 1925. For the artist these are “a perfect collapse of architecture and nature”.
