Eighteen of the nineteen copies of this stack are in mint condition, i.e. none of them are discoloured as is usually the case, apart from the top one.

JOELLE TUERLINCKX, Dacht en Nacht Open 24/24 – Open Museum, 1997 [poster]

inv.JTue 000-pr

Joëlle told me that after the opening of her exhibition ‘Dacht en Nacht Open’ she was informed by Stanley Brouwn that he does not appreciate to be mentioned in exhibitions he does not know about. Joëlle decided to meet his wish by crossing out his name on the posters. Recently she told me that this crossing is a drawing for her and that she would even be willing to sign it as such in case such a crossed poster would pop up somewhere.

FRANCIS ALŸS, Lada Kopelka Project, 2014 [postcard]

FRANCIS ALŸS, Lada Kopelka Project, April 16 – 21, 2014
10,5 x 14,8 cm
postcard, with texts in Russian and English
edition unknown
published by Manifesta 10

The text on this card reads: ‘When we were young, my brother and I shared a 1981 Lada Riva. One day we decided to escape our bourgeois Belgian society and drive to Leningrad. But the car broke down and soon after our lives parted. 30 years later I invite my brother to drive from Belgium to St.Petersburg, now in a 1977 Lada Kopeika. Upon arrival we’ll crash the car into a tree in the courtyard of the Winter Palace, together with the illusions of our youth.

Without an ending there is no beginning.’

 

Francis Alÿs is well-known for a walk called The Green Line through Jerusalem, along the 1948 partition lines, through armed checkpoints, holding a leaking can of paint: Sometimes doing something poetic can become political and sometimes doing something political can become poetic.
