"The invention of the ship was also the invention of the shipwreck."
(Paul Virilio)
APOGEE is the place in the universe that is the most distant to the
earth and is a mathematical quantity and allegory for absolute
seclusion. In March 2010, nüans was located in three different time
zones. Thus the search of ideas and material for a book project started.
Further relocations followed and with each city we hit upon further
ideas, people and contributions. Within the following year we presented
at different locations a preview of the book, which was still growing
even in the final stages of completion. Gradually, an expansive
archipelago has developed. Finally APOGEE gathers contributions of 80
artists and authors dealing with the topics of isolation, islands and
fluctuation.
