crazy life Alina Szapocznikow
went to this show at the hammer, unbelievable, when i talk about it, it sounds like when a person is compelled
to tell you of their dream and nothing makes sense and you check out of the conversation....but this show makes you feel many feelings from moved to sad to what are we doing to exuberance of putting yourself into work (i guess this is the dream part) the stuff is so personal you feel almost sick, below are her own words
"My gesture is aimed at the human body, this 'entirely erogenic sphere', with its undefined and ephemeral feelings - celebrating its impermanence in the recesses of our body, in the traces of our steps taken on his earth. Through casts of a human body, I attempt to preserve in translucent polystyrene the ephemeral moments of life, its paradoxes and its absurdity. (...) I am convinced that among all of the manifestations of impermanence, the human body is the most fragile, the only source of all joy, of all pain and of all truth, and this is thanks to its ontological poverty, which is as inevitable as it is - at the level of consciousness - absolutely unacceptable".
