Philippe Parreno Voices is the name of the most important contemporary art installation of our time, and it can be seen at the museum until May 25, 2025. Parreno was the one who, being aware of the space-time issue and the subject of space and time, has gotten himself involved in the deconstruction of the possibility of art as a simple given object or ‘thing.’ In ‘Voices’, art is not just painted on walls, it is the walls that are painted and that even means the audience is the objects that are depicted in the painting and the environment with the live setting left behind gets changed and finally improves.

Philippe Parreno’s Vision: How to Make Art Come Alive
Philippe Parreno has been fascinated by life-like art over the years. In the past, he has taken a very close look at the idea of art as an object that can go far beyond regularity and the human senses. In his installation ‘Voices’, Parreno develops the idea of a voice that speaks about what we cannot see beyond its shadow. In ‘Voices’, Parreno is not only showing that a work is not just plainly visual, the gallery goer can see it, and it is not just before the end of the work. We see that the space is the work and what it is of it and that it is changing according to the time and the space being one of the aspects and essence of its nature.
This living artwork idea is effectively represented in Parreno’s use of technology and natural materials. The Experience cannot exist without light and sound; hence both factors are intrinsic to it, moreover, it is worth noting that every new experience is unique. By the means of these elements, Parreno is removing a certain distance between art audiences and art works.
