The Deutsche Bank Series at the Guggenheim: Found in Translation
February 11–May 1, 2011. Organized by Associate Curator Nat Trotman

"Found in Translation brings together recent works by eleven artists who look to translation as both a model and a metaphor to critically comment on the past and to produce richly imagined possibilities for the present. For these artists, converting a text from one language to another exposes a discursive field in which the terms of identity—class, race, religion, sexuality—are negotiated, and meaning is generated."

Keren Cytter's video "Les Ruissellements du Diable" (2008), featuring a translator as the main character, will be part of this exhibition.
