hummm, it gonna be an experience to see him perform. Yesterday I went to Annette Messager exhibition in Beaubourg, I'm not really into her work but the installation for the Venice Biennale 2005 (she winned) is so great, all red oppressant fabrics sea, like a david lynch dream...

sounds amazing...i thin installations are incredible when they work right- i went to see the antony gormley blind light exhibition and it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. in a room filled with people- you can hear them and can't see them- you know they are there but you don't know where...it's truly amazing- then all of a sudden you come across a person and they are so happy to see another human being...it gets strangers talking and makes you play. It's nice to see adults play...

yes, the same red as Francko B. I never seen his work for real, performances must be amazing
^
i went to see one of his shows, it was mesmerising- horrible but beautiful and you wanted to protect him and at the same time you felt like his way a private pain you should not be witnessing....you felt like a voyeur, like it was you who were causing his pain and his blood to flow. I interviewed him last year but he said 'due to health' reasons he cannot do blood performances anymore....
