1.000.052 Anniversary of Art. Geneva
2015. GENEVA
‘ Art is what makes life more interesting than art’. Robert Filiou (1926-1987 )
Installation-performance-limited edition for the 1,000,052th anniversary of art in Geneva on 17 January 2015, organised by Mamco and ESAAA.
The Museum of Museums collective is proposing a tribute to Robert Filiou through a reinterpretation of the Bateau Chapeau. The guest artists: Eléonore Pano-Zavaroni (Museum of Museums), Gregoire Bergeret, Thomas Jeames and Adrián Torres.
These productions and microeditions will be performed inside the seagull boat. The art anniversary proposed by Filliou involved closing the museums and taking art out into the street. This time inside the seagull boats.
Here’s my proposal for Filliou’s seagull boat. Reconstruction of Filliou’s seagull boat using reed edges from the lake.
Serialised micro-edition of assembly kit. Reeds of various sizes, wire, instructions, envelopes.
Instructions for use. Instrucciones de montaje.
Activity inside seagull boats.
