Synopsis
The Luminous Interval accompanies the Guggenheim Museum's eponymous exhibition of works drawn from the D. Daskalopoulos collection. Daskalopoulos' collecting practices are inspired in part by the writings of the Greek philosopher Nikos Kazantzakis, who envisioned life as the "luminous interval" bridging the twin abysses of birth and death. Balancing renderings of chaotic fragmentation with forms defined by geometric containment and restraint, the works explore the coexistence of hope and despair within the human condition. Encompassing works in various media by more than 30 artists, including Steve McQueen, Wangechi Mutu, Rivane Neuenschwander and Walid Raad, the result is a survey of some of the most salient artistic developments of recent decades. This fully illustrated catalogue features an interview with Daskalopoulos and critical essays by philosopher Simon Critchley with Jamieson Webster and art critic Brian Sholis.

About the book >.>.> The Luminous Interval: The D Daskalopoulos Collection by Nancy Spector explores a significant private art collection showcased at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao. This exhibition presents a curated selection of artworks that reflect some of the most notable developments in contemporary art, offering insight into the vision of collector Dimitris Daskalopoulos. The collaboration between the private collector and the museum aligns with the institution's mission to enhance critical discourse, conserve art, and inspire cultural engagement among diverse audiences.Central to the exhibition is the principle that underlines the selected pieces, which primarily consist of sculptures and installations. These works articulate the dual nature of creativity: a driving force for human advancement, coupled with an acute awareness of its ephemeral essence. Visitors may find themselves captivated not only by the scale and nature of the artworks but also by how the collection prompts reflection on the practice of collecting itself. It showcases Daskalopoulos's determination and vision in assembling a group of art that engages with timeless questions that have concerned humanity throughout history.A visit to The Luminous Interval promises a distinctive opportunity to encounter this dynamic and challenging ensemble of artworks, offering a glimpse into the creative spirit they encapsulate. As articulated by Patxi Lopez, Lehendakari of the Basque Government and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao Foundation, this exhibition encourages viewers to appreciate the boldness and depth of the collection while considering the broader implications of artistic expression in contemporary society.
