Sanguine / Bloedrood

    NLENFR

    Pendant le festival culturel de la ville Antwerpen Barok 2018. Rubens inspireert, le M HKA, le Musée d’Art Contemporaine d’Anvers, oppose l’esprit des maîtres du baroque à la vision des grands artistes contemporains. Avec l’exposition Sanguine/Bloedrood, le commissaire d’exposition Luc Tuymans veut surprendre le visiteur en mettant en dialogue des œuvres phares du baroque de Francisco de Zurbarán, Caravaggio et Anthony van Dyck avec des œuvres de maîtres contemporains classiques, comme On Kawara et Edward Kienholz, complétées par de nouvelles œuvres des vedettes contemporaines telles que Zhang Enli, Takashi Murakami, Michaël Borremans, Sigmar Polke et Tobias Rheberger.

    The Rea(dy)-make of the Money Performance, 1980
    Jan Fabre
    Performance , 00:50:00

    11.1.1980
    ​Antwerpen, Ankerrui Theatre

     

     

    'It's night.It feels good.

    Last night I did The Rea(dy)-make of the
    Money Performance.
    I had my nerves under control
    and my energy was focused.
    The concept was just right.
    The public didn't get what it came
    for and what it had read in the papers:
    scandal and success.
    I gave them confusion and a new performance.'

    (Jan Fabre, Antwerp, 11 January 1980)

    'The press, what an unworldly medium.
    How odd!
    Two newspapers wrote exactly the same
    about my performance:
    'The originality of the ideas remains,
    so we can expect a third Money Performance
    from Jan Fabre.'
    The answer to that is simple: FORGET IT!
    What do they think, those journalists,
    that an artist is a DJ (we request, you spin).'

    (Jan Fabre, Antwerp, 16 January 1980)
