The show was based at an offsite project at the Cité des Arts and featured work by artists Bianca Bondi, Joel Dean, Cédric Fargues, Bea Fremderman, Timothy Furey, Frieder Haller, Rosie Hastings & Hannah Quinlan, Leslie Martinelli, Anna Sagström, Pepo Salazar, Fabio Santacroce and Anna Solal.

Spanning sculpture, video-as-readymade, readymades-as-sculpture, photography and a site-specific sculpture/installation, the show brought together works that address collaboration by using the fertile metaphor of the garden, touching upon the urgency of creation and the making of new bonds in an arid and stilted atmosphere:

“In the shadow of a nuclear station in Dungeness, England sits Derek Jarman’s meditative and arid garden. Poking out of the flint surface, its irises, plants and rusty crosses made from wrenches, is a far cry from the green monochrome of Bree Van de Kampf ’s perfectly tended lawns that adorn Wisteria Lane.”**

The Garden was on at Paris’ ROOM E-10 27, running February 11 to March 4, 2016.
