Navid Nuur
«Bored at the Museum/Bored at the Studio»
This book was published on the occasion of the exhibition «Post Parallelism» (12 February – 17 April 2011). «Bored at the Museum/ Bored at the Studio» is a two-way book in which Navid Nuur combines Polaroid pictures of himself acting out objects in his studio and a hundred of collected images found on the internet, depicting the «creative boredom» that often seizes visitors to traditional museum spaces: a phenomenon well-described by Giovanni Carmine in the introductory text «To Be, or Not to Be (Bored)».
