Szuper Gallery
 

 

  i will survive, 2007
  Performance, 15th-17th July 2007, Bregenz
 

The video performance by Szuper Gallery was acted acted out in different public locations in Bregenz. A reference to 4'33'' occured both in its structure and on an allegorical level. It also made reference to notions of theatre, re-staging, or a performance of existence.

We hired a professional make-up artist (someone with a very good and classical theatre or opera training) who worked with us in order to create three different face manipulations for three consecutive days (a different one each day). The first face made us look about 20 years younger, the second face emphasized our current features and the third face made us about 20 years older. During the performance, we ' took ' these faces to different places in Bregenz, where we remain, silently, for 4 minutes and 33 seconds. We visited the same locations each day with a different 'face'.
