“It’s important to acknowledge the conversation you’re participating in, a conversation that existed before you and one that will exist after you—and also remembering that this conversation wasn’t always open to everyone. Paint isn’t neutral.”—Ludovic NkothLudovic Nkoth: What If was published on the occasion of the eponymous exhibition at Fondation Le Corbusier – Maison La Roche, a masterpiece of twentieth-century modern architecture conceived by Le Corbusier in a multicolored palette. The exhibition features intimate figurative works that capture the private lives of the subjects in moments of thought, rest, and enjoyment, inviting the viewer to imagine alternative narratives and outcomes when images and objects of the Black experience, created by a Black artist, inhabit a space designed for modern abstract art.Both the exhibition and publication were conceived and produced by MASSIMODECARLO.
