Michelangelo Corsaro's 'After Babel' Exhibition at Annex M in Athens

Michelangelo Corsaro presented the exhibition 'After Babel' at Annex M in Athens, which opened on March 4, 2019. The show was reviewed by ArtReview, referencing Jorge Luis Borges's 1941 short story 'The Library of Babel'. Corsaro's work engages with themes of language, knowledge, and infinite possibilities, drawing inspiration from Borges's literary exploration of a universe composed of endless hexagonal galleries containing every possible book. The exhibition at Annex M serves as a contemporary artistic interpretation of these concepts, situating Corsaro's practice within a dialogue between literature and visual art. The review positions the exhibition within broader art historical and philosophical contexts, examining how Corsaro translates Borges's narrative into spatial and visual forms. 'After Babel' represents a significant presentation of Corsaro's work in Athens, contributing to ongoing conversations about language systems and epistemological limits in contemporary art.
