‘Three Perspectives and a Short Scenario* Work 1988 – 2008 Mirrored Image: A ‘Volvo’ bar’
September 27 – November 16, 2008
Liam Gillick described his theater piece — produced and performed at Kunstverein München — Mirrored Image: A ‘Volvo’ Bar, as follows: “A number of charac- ters come together in a bar near to a car factory. Franck ‘Stairs’—on the day of his own birth—a number of people who are familiar yet out of focus—a crisis in the director’s office—a group of people trapped in a discus- sion room. A collapse of identity and a contingent use of projected self-image. A precise structure that will contain new statements of intent.”
