Less is more

Performance
32 minutes
Reading of Less is more, Mies Van der Rohe
Fondation Fiminco, Romainville, France, as part of the 71st edition of Jeune Création

As a preamble to this performance, I invite the audience to read Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s Less is more.

Continuing my reflections on the medium of performance, this time I question its ephemeral nature and the framework of the collection and its display.

Faced with the reserves of the Frac Île-de-France, a place par excellence for the conservation of art, I invite the audience to take up Mies Van der Rohe’s text, Less is more, and to question what the acquisition of a performance and its exhibition within a collection implies.
