Poetic collages by Georges Hugnet, postcards by On Kawara, "visible words" by Victor Brauner, objects by Marcel Broodthaers, a poster design by Man Ray: the exhibition brings together a wide selection of works spanning nearly a century of creation, from Dada to contemporary art. Together, they reflect the ways in which artists use signs, words, and numbers as material for artistic creation.
