Anne and Patrick Poirier have been invited by Ludwig Museum im Deutschherrnhaus in order to present the exhibition “Fragilité”, for commemorating the 30 years of the museum and the same 30 years since the inauguration of their permanent installation “Dépôt de mémoire et d’oubli”.
The time that has passed since their last intervention, sealed by the show, aims at reflecting on what has remained, survived or forgotten, and on what will be remembered or otherwise abandoned, discussing the fragility of the collective memory.

Curated by Beate Reifenscheid and Laure Martin
Ludwig Museum im Deutschherrnhaus, Koblenz (DE)
