Trilogy of the Moderns
Partie III : A Wonderfful World
Exhibited at the Triennale di Milano, Italy, May 2012
A Wonderful World offers a new perspective on the universe of the Moderns, the one in which we are living today; a great park full of abstractions and attractions where everything is laid out for the tourist, arranged around the holidays of the West, designed to infantilise society. Rancinan attentively observes his contemporaries, eschewing cynicism and derision in favour of humour, realism and vivacity.

‘Fourteen Actors Acting’

“If we have goals and dreams and we want to do our best, and if we love people and we don’t want to hurt them or lose them, we should feel pain when things go wrong. The point isn’t to live without any regrets, the point is to not hate ourselves for having them… We need to learn to love the flawed, imperfect things that we create, and to forgive ourselves for creating them. Regret doesn’t remind us that we did badly — it reminds us that we know we can do better.”
- Kathryn Schulz
HAPPINESS
ISSUE #83 COLORS
You get it when you win a race and lose it when you get laid off. Governments put it in their policies, preachers in their sermons, writers at the ends of their stories. Scientists say they’ve found it on the left side of the brain. Pursuing it, Americans spend US$20 billion a year on self-help and antidepressants. But wealth isn’t working: people in the West are twice as rich as they were sixty years ago, yet no more satisfied with their lives. Twenty years from now, depression will be the biggest health burden in the world. Joy, euphoria, satisfaction, tranquility, triumph. It comes in many forms. So what makes you happy?
I close my eyes and I see you dancing
Do you see me when you close your’s too?

AUGUSTIN TEBOUL
Inspired by Surrealism the designers leave enough space for chance in the process of creation, while they insist on flawless workmanship and finest materiality. Deeply routed in the craft of tailoring the duo combines poetry and gravity in their cutting-edge designs. AUGUSTIN TEBOUL stands for an exclusive, avant-garde and yet mind-blowingly feminine look.
There are monolithic visions when one
can only see one thing obsession, nothing enters
the visual field- neither comparison nor let on.
the apprehension, terror, stiffness, no give and take, the
will inflexible and blind like a robot - it is simply Fear.
I think fear to be rejected fear to fail
…
Death is helplessness
…
I cannot
make myself beloved therefore I attack. I cannot
find the energy to get dressed depression
I cannot face the day. The world is gray
I cannot go out, the world is empty. I cannot belive in tomorrow.
I turn off all the lights
I cannot bear looking at myself the self hate
it is night I cannot obtain - what I want -
I cannot change myself but I can bring death
upon myself - … - All this was unconscious
and I was living the Anxiety.
