From the Musée National d'Art Moderne du Centre Georges Pompidou to MADRE in Naples, another exhibition dedicated to the French artist.The exhibition displays the work entitled Manège (literally "merry-go-round"), presented in 2006 at the Centre National d'Art et de Culture Georges Pompidou in Paris, with which in 2005 George Closky won the prestigious Prix Duchamp. The installation consists of 16 flat screens hung at a regular distance, sending messages about time: time which has to be taken, to be found, earned, spent or even killed. The artist will also present a site-specific installation for the big courtyard inside MADRE, entitled Climb at your own risk
