Opposite the Pic du Canigou, the holy mountain of the Catalonians and the last high peak before the Pyrenees descend into the Mediterranean, Wolfgang Laib has created a timeless, sublime space that seems to have grown naturally from the earth. Accessible only by footpath, "The Room of Certitudes" is a rock chamber chiseled out of granite, its walls lined with beeswax, its only opening a simple wooden door. Though the cave itself can only be reached after a long hike, it is here transmitted through the artist's own photographs, in a book of his own design.
