Dictionaries at the Venice Biennale


"Richard Wentworth's hanging mobile of dictionaries pierced by wires also produced a few appreciative smiles. Stand underneath it, like a baby in a cot beneath a set of pink rabbits, and you can read the titles, Finnish by A.H.Whitney, Learn Teluga in 30 Days, Collins Italian Dictionary, A Dictionary of Current American Usage. Each one is strung out below a dark iron frame and secured by a steel knot." So writes Peter Stothard on his TimesOnline blog. I found the photo at http://universes-in-universe.org/eng/bien/venice_biennale/2009/.
