Daniel Buren: L’Horizon, Infiniment, travaux in situ et situés

Buren’s in-situ works play with points of view, spaces, architecture, colours, light, movement, the surrounding environment, or projections, acquiring their decorative force by radically transforming the sites. His “visual tool” is based on the use of alternating white and colored vertical stripes, which let him reveal the significant details of the site where he is working, by employing them in specific, and at times complex, structures lying somewhere between painting, sculpture and architecture.

Incisive, critical and engaged, Buren’s work is in a continual state of development and diversification. The artist will transform the exhibition space of Galleria Continua – Dubai in the iconic Burj Al Arab Jumeirah into a dynamic and immersive environment, creating a dialogue with the building and the landscape.
