Simon Faithfull's RECIF 1, Antipode Exhibition at FRAC Basse-Normandie

Simon Faithfull's exhibition RECIF 1, Antipode at FRAC Basse-Normandie in Caen featured five works by the British artist. The show ran from December 6, 2014 to February 15, 2015. Faithfull positions himself as a jester among contemporary walking artists, openly acknowledging the influence of silent film comedian Buster Keaton. His practice explores antipodal relationships and geographical extremes through conceptual journeys. The exhibition was documented in artpress issue 419 from February 2015. Faithfull's work combines performance, video, and documentation to examine human interaction with remote landscapes. The FRAC Basse-Normandie presented this solo exhibition as part of its contemporary art programming. Faithfull's approach blends humor with serious investigation of spatial and temporal boundaries.
