After: attente
It was as if the person sitting on the chair had walked away for a while. His absence was visible, as is the possibility that the owner of the jacket wiould return. With this installation, Boltanski emphasized human transience, on the effort to hold on what is fleeing, insisting especially on man's personal involvement in this collective narrative called life, history, thought.
