The work originally conceived by

the

couple

Hubbard

/

Birchler

for

the

Swiss

Pavilion

at

the

2017

Venice

Biennale

re-constructs

the

life

story

of

the

American

artist

Flora

Mayo.

Mayo had a romantic relationship in the 1920s with the Swiss sculptor Alberto Giacometti. While he is now one of the most famous

artists

of

the

twentieth

century,

her

work

was

de-stroyed,

and

her

life

forgotten.
