les ready made….

Les ready-made appartiennent à tout le monde /Readymade belongs to everyone (2009)

performance installation

A performance for one man and two female singer/musicians, resulting from a  comprehensive research on the codified body language of cowboy line dancing in the American Midwest. The culture of the lost cowboys and Country & Western songs is counterpointed by the over excitement of the female gospel cultural milieu. It is the American mass culture dissected and merged through the prism of an external eye.

Les ready made… was made in collaboration with performers : Diego Agulló, Kristina Hanses and Raffaela Herbert, composition : Sebastian Bauer aka Homme Noir, dramaturgical advice : Adelheid Roosen, technical direction : Sebastian Bauer.
