Kewenig congratulates Christian Boltanski on his retrospective exhibition at Centre Pompidou in Paris, with more than 50 works are on display, 35 years after his first exhibition at the French museum. Conceived by the artist himself as one site-specific installation, 'Faire son temps' takes the viewer on a journey through five decades of Boltanski's oeuvre.

Christian Boltanski’s installation ‘Animitas’ can be seen and heard at Sculpture Park Hellbrunn in Salzburg. The bell project was first shown in 2014 in the Chilean desert, subsequently in different locations in Japan, Scotland, Canada and Israel. The installation in Salzburg consists of 120 Japanese chimes, each attached to spindly sticks – with each wind breeze producing a delicate sound, which Boltanski calls the 'music of the souls'.
