ALEKSEY LUNYEV
Novopolotsk, Belarus
SIE LIEBTE ARBEIT
by Viktor Petrov
The artist did this performance to a soundtrack. Anyone who wishes to do so is invited to click their tongues. The artist cuts up a piece of felt into strips, sews the ends together, lays it out in a circle, then stands in its centre. His assistant, Wolfgang Müller, reads out a text in German, then hands it to the performer. Now three loaves of bread are laid out, and the soft dough inside them is rolled into seven balls. Slides showing the days of the week in German are projected as a backdrop. Finally, the remaining felt is also cut into seven square pieces, which are then used to wrap up the bread balls together with pieces torn from the text read by the assistant.
