In the Wunderkammer three photos of Sophie CALLE from the series Statues ennemies reveal three religious works vandalised by iconoclasts: a wooden Christ, disfigured by an axe, an image of a Saint with the eyes ripped out and a painting of a Christ shot with a machine gun. These black and white images show a descructive rage that, in all times, can possess the "barbarian", enemy of the freedom of thoughts. These works, relatively exceptional in the work of Sophie Calle, are large size polaroids and hence unique pieces.
