Text by Christian Janicot, Arnauld Pierre. Preface by Mona Khazindar.
Metal drums, gas pumps, automotive materials and even oil itself comprise artist collective BP's sardonic, corrosive installations challenging the ethics of fossil fuels
For its inaugural exhibition, the Black Gold Museum partners with curators Christian Janicot and Arnauld Pierre in an examination on the material nature of petroleum through selected works by the French artist collective BP. Their work explores themes of appropriation, reuse and environmental critique, often incorporating oil as a medium.
