Summary:
This book features Pousttchi’s new photographic installation at Nivola Museum in Orani on the Italian island of Sardinia. She chose the Metropolitan Life Building on 1 Madison Avenue in Manhattan as her subject for this piece. Criticized for its blatant Italian references at the time of its completion in 1909 — and the world’s tallest structure until 1913 — the building displays a hybrid identity, recalling cultural and temporal-spatial dislocations between the Old and the New World, Renaissance and Modernism.

Organized in clusters or lists, these poems flirt with concrete poetry. Sometimes made unreadable, these leitmotivs composed of his very own elements of language can blacken the entire page as a result of performances close to trances- a real outlet for the author.
