The hypermodern minimizes the familiar, the known,<br \/>\n the recognizable; it suspends identity, relations and history. This<br \/>\n discourse, far from determining the locus in which it speaks, is<br \/>\n avoiding the ground on which it could find support.

The basic structure of the<br \/>\n\t project has been over three decades in the making.

Thus from artworks of dead masters,<br \/>\n\t over-life-size strangeness whose names we do not know and do not<br \/>\n\t wish to know, look out at us enigmatically as symbols of all<br \/>\n\t being.<\/p>\n<p> &#8212;<br \/>\n This project has not received government art-subsidies.
