2006, ORGANIC LIFE, „Out-or?”, Poznań

ORGANIC LIFE

Action, delegated performance
2006
Polish-English exhibition „Out-or?”, Poznań, Poland

24 min

The performance took place as part of an exhibition dedicated to the revitalization of Chwaliszewo - one of Poznan’s neglected districts on the Warta River, in front of a tenement house inhabited by the so-called social margin. In our action, the residents of this tenement house played the role of artists. Before the performance began, we knocked on the doors of all apartments, asking the tenants to participate. No one refused.
At the appointed hour when the audience sat in front of the building in anticipation for the performance, residents began to lean out of the windows showering the audience with handfuls of coins.
