DACHSHUND U.N.

Looking so forward to seeing Dachshund U.N. by Bennett Miller at the
 MCA on Saturday ..... 
"47 specially recruited live dachshunds engage in vigorous debate in this performance work examining the role of the United Nations as a risk management organisation. Bennett Miller creates both a joyful and chaotic experiment and a meditation on the utopian aspirations of the United Nations"



 









..... crazy but true, 
and I'm excited !!!

you can see a video here
and the very fun recruiting BBQ here

HOSSEIN VALAMANESH

We recently visited the newly renovated MCA  ......
 and now I think I may have a new favorite artwork, The Lover Circles his own Heart by Hossein Valaman would have to be one of the most beautiful works I have seen in a long time .....
  It's very hard to appreciate from a photograph but you can see and learn more about the work here
the above photograph is from it's first showing in Berlin ......

this is how we viewed it, not quite the Berlin space but still so beautiful on the polished concrete floor .....
