excerpts from a performance done as an introduction to screening of film faceless by manu luksch.
out of george orwell’s 1984 i selected all passages describing faces and read them aloud with a white mask on. it’s in czech, sorry.
screening took place at kino světozor as part of regular weekly experimental screening series titled audiovisual curated by sylva poláková. screening was brought by tranzit, initiative for contemporary art.
meeting nick currie aka momus, whom i admire greatly for his brilliant music and lyrics, his critical thinking, humor and irony. momus exhibited one piece at “a spoken word exhibition” curated by mathieu copeland at gallery tranzitdisplay in prague and performed two passages from his upcoming “book of jokes” at the opening of the exhibition. in the middle photo nick performs his exhibited piece for me himself. i’m not telling.
