Summary:

"The exhibition 'bottled water branded water' takes the site of the Parc Saint Léger and its history as its starting point. The title of the exhibition makes reference to the economic activity that brought life to the center up until the 1970s - that of a thermal spa. As the neologism of the title suggests, the exhibition implicitly evokes the commercialization of water ... As a further reference to the economic stakes of the commercialization of natural resources, Gabriel Kuri created a publication to accompany the exhibition that shows a repertoire of images of various French brands of mineral water, photographed like commercial products, but with their bottles filled with a yellowish fluid provocatively entitled "undisclosed liquid."--Www.estherschipper.com
