“Once upon a time there was a human need to count, to measure time. Once upon a time there was a human passion for life and the desire to prolong it by cheating time. Once upon a time there was fascination with speed, when life was carried away by time.
\nAnd then there are places that make us want, that bring together need, desire and amazement.
\nM\u00e9rtola is like this. So the exhibition could only be called TIME MACHINE< here, it makes more sense. Here is its full expression.\nWhat best defines human beings? Their biology, their religion, their philosophy, there is a list of skills that are unique to humans, it is impossible to weave all these threads into an answer, it would be arrogant.\nThere is, however, one characteristic, the \"invention of human time\". How to prove this existence, to travel on the machine.\nDespite the different calendars, with dates that do not coincide, like in a kaleidoscope of colours and events, since the first known human representations, there has been something that questions us, like the phrase \"know thyself\", and situates us in human time; its language is Art. This is truly unique global time, for it gives us a mere minute:\n\u2026 once upon a time there were humans!\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
