A mirror by Anish Kapoor

Roberta Smith wrote a review on the exhibition, and this paragraph seemed to combine the idea of time with the exhibition - “The organizers of “Artempo” have used this setting [Fortuny Museum] to create a reverie in three acts, skimming across human and geological history, ruminating on the nature and effects of time. It dramatizes art’s ability to encapsulate time, and time’s ability to turn just about anything, man-made or natural, into art.” Time in this case is not taken literally, but “where an object's age and beauty acquire their own value.”
Here's the website – have a look at the 'virtual tour'! http://www.artempo.eu/exhibition_en/virtual_en.html
