What is a Superhero ? What is the collective imagination ?
An unlikely Spiderman,pathetic and defeated, is suspended at tens of centimeters above the ground,wrapped tight, with a roll of cellophane, to a column in the middle of an urban crossroads.
The image has a force at once sublime and terrible,but the real show is in the reaction of the passers-by,encouraged (by a carer who accompanies the Superhero) to take advantage of this incredible oppurtunity to be confronted with the normality of the defeat of the invincible.
The performance unfolds in two parts : a walkabout during which Spiderman promenades in a wheelchair,then a second part during which he is suspended and offered to the stares of the passers-by and their cameras…
Me da igual is a collection of single performances. Adrift
thoughts and ongoing projects take shape in an unusual
location,where container and fruition are part of
the mise en scéne Thre terrorists, three fools, three
intellectuals in their underpants, three society’s outcasts,
three frustrated and desperate men,will vent their desire
for vengeance.
Hopefully the bomb will be powerful
enough, viruses will cause a small epidemic, the
dictatorship of daily nothingness will be temporarily
defeated. All this just to put on a show, to amuse, to bark.
Without biting.
Let others find a meaning, we are busy.
