THE LOGICAL BASIS

Specific creation for the Gare du Nord RER docks in November 2015. Liam Gillick proposes an in situ artwork for the redeveloped docks of the RER B and D of the subway station Gare du Nord. A series of equations modeling oceanic and terrestrial atmospheric fluxes will be placed on colored solid areas painted on concrete. The artist was inspired by the theory developed by Syukuro Manabe in the 60s, a theory at the root of science on climate change.
