50 Moons of Saturn is the catalog of the exhibition curated by Daniel Birnbaum for T2 - the second Torino Triennale. It brings together works by fifty young international artists and presents two special projects by Paul Chan and Olafur Eliasson. "The Saturnine mind is gloomy and depressed, yet inspired and radiant; passive and fundamentally negative, yet rebellious and magnificently productive. Traditionally linked to the artist's temperament, melancholy is the state of mind of inspiration" (Daniel Birnbaum).
