Follow The Leaders, A Corporate City In Ruins By Isaac Cordal, Place Du Bouffay, Nantes, France
|
After three months of work a new version of installation Follow the leaders has been filed Place du Bouffay in Nantes. The result is a massive installation consists of 2000 pieces and several concrete buildings which represent a kind of city in ruins: a metaphor for the collapse of capitalism and the side effects of progress. The installation occupies 20 m x 18 m. At night it lights up like a sort of ghost town.
Follow the leaders is a critical reflection on our inertia as a social mass. Representing a social stereotype associated with power compound businessmen who run the global social spectrum. The sprawling collapsed society involves 2,000 cement figures and decaying concrete buildings that the artist says are meant as a metaphor for the collapse of capitalism and the side effects of progress.
