Participative Performance | Rirkrit Tiravanija: DAS GLÜCK IST NICHT IMMER LUSTIG
The Baharestan Carpet is made of cardboard and is an artwork to activate as well as a device to bring together creatives and meet different groups of people. On this occasion, Farifteh Tavakola-Borazjani will be the guest and invites you to draw or write the Persian alphabet with your fingers on the surface of the carpet.
The event takes place on a demo station by Rirkrit Tiravanija. The stage-like sculpture invites people to “demonstrate” something. Tiravanija plays with the different meanings of the term “demonstration” as both a political protest and a presentation of someone’s talent or hobby. For the duration of the exhibition, the demo station provides a space for daily public performances.
