LUÍS LÁZARO MATOS Summer Waterfalls & Autumn Leaves

expo
20 SEP — 14 DEC 2019
"I was never able to skateboard, nor was I ever able to date boys in school. Like skateboards they all seemed to run from under my feet." 

Jeremy Wade / The Battlefield Nurse Technologies of Impossible Repair (Love is not romance honey!)

lecture performance
FR 20.09.2019 19:45 - 20:15
In times of crisis the Battlefield Nurse prescribes a social political strategy. She calls it ‘love’. But it won’t work if love is mired in sticky romance and cheap lockets – hemmed into the incestuous circle of normative relations. We need love to serve as a force of interdependence among intimate strangers and all earthly creatures. Sing it!!
