Catalogue of the first edition of the triennial exhibition of contemporary art in Turin, organised in collaboration with the Castello di Rivoli Museum of Contemporary Art, Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art, and the Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Foundation.The title of the catalogue takes its inspiration from the French writer François Rabelais' character Pantagruel, the grotesque protagonist at the limits of absurdity. A creature of gigantic proportion and voracious appetites, Pantagruel was an ideal hero for a civilization in transition from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, who rediscovered the empirical worldthrough the direct experience of his adventures. Here Pantagruel works as a metaphor for contemporary society characterized by a tension toward change and a healthy desire for knowledge, on the one hand, and fragility and fear, on the other.
