MIF & The Guardian: Marta Minujín in conversation with Alex Clarke | MIF21

On the first night of MIF21, and as part of The Guardian’s 200th birthday celebrations, artist Marta Minujín joined us to present an exploration of what it means to be a ‘work in progress’, drawing on six decades of creating radical, pioneering art. She then discussed these themes further in conversation with Alex Clark of The Guardian. Marta Minujín has created Big Ben Lying Down with Political Books for MIF21. This colossal 42-metre model of a toppled Big Ben is made from 20,000 political books that have shaped British politics – which will be taken down and given away free at the end of the Festival. Minujín’s first major large-scale UK commission, Big Ben Lying Down with Political Books can be seen and visited for free in Piccadilly Gardens for the duration of MIF21 (1–18 July). The work follows previous installations by Minujín, such as The Parthenon of (once banned) Books at documenta 14, Kassel, Germany and The Tower of Babel in her home country, which have powerfully reimagined global symbols to explore ideas about art, democracy and free expression.
