Les Innombrables: Private Collection (Zuzza Fias) / Miami Art Week 2023
  • 4 months ago
Private Collection (Zuzza Fias), 2023, is a sculptural installation by Les Innombrables, created for the Off Meridians sector of Art Basel Miami Beach. The artwork is enclosed on all sides by black privacy screen fencing. Natural holes and gaps in the fencing offer glimpses into an interior – a physically inaccessible arrangement of sculptures appropriated by the artists. “The work prompts questions around themes of access, the privatization of land, settler colonialism, and Indigenous resilience. Les Innombrables’ largest sculpture to date, Private Collection (Zuzza Fias), 2023, challenges expectations around privileged immediacy and access to art, and raises questions around the capitalist-socialist overproduction of art and its social production conditions, and its environmental impact, including recycling and production – and the appreciation of art in public spaces.”
(appropriated and adapted official description)

Les Innombrables is an ephemeral artist collective founded in 1991 in Heidiland (Switzerland). Les Innombrables describe their artistic practice as the seizure of randomly found realities.
