the iisue with the institutional way of documenttation.


most facilities use two way of arhive collection archive - documentation works -documentation about the work

what are we buying and how do we preserve it.


written text as a documentation excluding visual presentation freedom with imagination


how far can you move from the origin with the afterlife? how far can you detach from cultural field in which the performance acts.


the afterlife what does it concern? the economical side or the authors

-- the art work - comodified



the document a performance you need a performance

the need of documentation or the economics

the lack is to capture the experience the .... of the work


no need for experience no need for driving no nned for a performance
