composition:
performative reading of a manifesto with statements addressing issues concerning personal views, hope, beliefs/disbeliefs, daily routines, counter-utopian declarations, as well as a long list of “isms”, all of them connected through a general assertion on how each artist take on responsibility of their own affirmations exclusively on their own behalf. before the performance have taken place, a series of A1 posters were spread around the city of weimar. each poster contains short precise sentences extracted from the original manifesto.
