Lagomarsino illegally imported eggs from Argentina, which he and his father then threw at the monument in an act of poetic retribution. Employing themes of travel and transport, the work comments on the received historical narrative and its continuing influence."},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"De installatie *More Delicate Than the Historian’s Are the Map Maker’s Colours* (De Kleuren van de Cartograaf zijn Gevoeliger dan die van de Historicus) draait rond het monument van Christopher Columbus in Sevilla.

Lagomarsino voerde illegaal eieren uit Argentinië in, samen met zijn vader gooide hij deze dan naar het monument bij wijze van poëtische wraakactie.
