Abstract
An artist’s book, a catalogue of a museum without walls, an account of a work under construction in response to a commission * in a former mining basin, Joëlle Tuerlinckx guides us through the studio’s archives, opens up the development of a thought process leading to the inventory of the M.M. (Museum of Memory) collection. Playing on the great classic and encompassing ‘all of J.T.’s work’, she presents ‘a museum by itself’.
Although the book was originally linked to ‘La Triangulaire de Cransac’, a monumental work installed in the small town in Aveyron, it also examines the evolution of the museum in its relationship with the artist and the book. Joëlle Tuerlinckx reminds us that if the museum is compared to a book because of its internal organisation, conversely a book can be compared to a museum because of its systematics and method of contemplating objects.
