International city projects / Peter Greenaway in Ljubljana / site specific / Exibition catalogue
Zemljevid v paradiž iz Ljubljane, Delo, 5. Marec, 2002 Blaž Lukan
The ten maps to paradise are tied
to a specific architectural space. The undercroft in Ljubljana Castle
provided a palimpset space that Greenaway enhanced with a series of historical
and esthetic traces encompassed in three semantic blocks: the sign of
death, sign of farewell and sign of a welcoming gift. The development
and process of the creation of the first in a series of maps is presented
in the book Peter Greenaway - A Map to Paradise form Ljubljana. Muzeum's
publication, which can be thought of as a catalogue, a collection of documents
and a work of art, is an effective conclusion of a successfully realised
project.
