Anri Sala: Time No Longer

Bourse de Commerce Pinault Collection, Paris

Until January 13, 2023, Anri Sala takes over the Rotunda of the Bourse de Commerce in Paris. The Pinault Collection presents Time No Longer by Anri Sala, showcasing the eponymous immersive artwork by the Albanian multidisciplinary artist.

A monumental curved screen integrates harmonically with the cylindrical architecture of the iconic Rotunda of the Bourse de Commerce: Time No Longer (2021) draws its inspiration from Olivier Messiaen’s Quartet for the End of Time for part of its dramaturgy. Yet, here Sala orchestrates a new space-time: the soundtrack, arranged for clarinet and saxophone based on the solo The Abyss of the Birds, becomes music for contemporary times. After its presentation in Houston and then at the Kunsthaus Bregenz, Time No Longer inscribes the convolutions of its infinite choreography into the circular space of the Rotunda, which seems, in turn, to be freed from earthly gravity and engaged in perpetual movement.” (Text courtesy Pinault Collection)

Around the Rotunda, in the Gallery 2 space on the ground floor of the museum and in the basement, we encounter Take Over (2017), 1395 Days Without Red (2011), and Another Solo in the Doldrums (Extended Play) (2012).
