This book derives from an exhibition by the same name, which explored the eternal compulsion to produce and to collect works of art, displaying objects drawn together from Turin’s most prominent collections. It traces the work done in Turin by three outstanding curators from around the world: Tom Eccles, director of Center for Curatorial Studies at Bard College in New York, Mark Rappolt, editor-in-chief of the British magazine Art Review, and the British artist Liam Gillick. The title comes from the answer to a riddle – In girum imus nocte et consumimur igni – and outlines a possible method for recounting a place through its artistic heritage.
