I Mutanti is the catalogue of the exhibition of the same name held at The French Academy in Rome - Villa Medici. The five featured conceptual artists, or "mutants", are prophets whose work provides a visionary perspective into a world that we do not yet know, where identity is indefinite. This edition of the catalogue features the work of Adel Abdessemed. Conceptual artist Adel Abdessemed, like William Lamson and CaiGuo-Qiang, creates situations based on deliberate actions--or "acts" as he calls them--carried out on everyday materials, which he documents with videos, photographs, and later juxtaposes with a sculptural remainder from the action itself.
