IM PARK_I Lie to History …
IM PARK_I Lie to History Let´s build your beautiful tower,
you charming boy
This piece is the performance of a play in front of a video camera.
The play takes place in a park behind the high rise buildings of the Allianz
(German Insurance, Asset Management and Banking Company) in Berlin.
It is a performance collage between two persons and a choir.
A threefold dynamic evolves:
between the speaker, the higher authority and the public.
The speaker (the artist) recites a text accompanied by cut-outs from current newspapers, political speeches.
A tower is erected from screws and chewed chewing gum.
around which the rituals of the play are performed.
This video-play-performance poses questions about trust, alliance, power
and powerlessness in the condition of global crisis.
