‘The Long Term (A Measure of Intimacy)’ focuses on Cesarco’s series of the same title, which insists on questioning the sustainability of desire in the long term through allegorically measuring or quantifying the comforts or distances of intimacy. From Marcel Duchamp’s or Stanley Brouwn’s meters to Andre Cadere’s round bars of wood, to Guy Mees, or the Surface/Support group, the series carries a long line of references. However, these works also refer to Cesarco's own work portraying couples, their relationships, and the limits of language.
