Big Bang– Art Basel 2009
As everything wound down Sunday night we walked to the beach for Karmelo Bermejo’s The Grand Finale in a 30 second fireworks display the word RECESSSION exploded on the beach, was briefly left illuminated, then twinkled out. Much like the weekend itself, the work was a much needed break from the gloom of the economic situation leaving us hopeful that this marks the beginning of the end.
