DÉLIRIUM VIDÉO 1

The artist speaks in front of a steady camera about his passion for art and specifically the medium of video. In his speech, references to the history of contemporary art pass by. In a second scene, he goes to the market of Charleroi buying a living rabbit that he will prepare at home for a meal. This scene leads to another speech, echoing the legendary lecture-performance of Joseph Beuys 'How to explain pictures to a dead hare'. The other parts of this video pay homage to amongst others Marcel Duchamp (the 'Fountain' of R. Mutt), Gustave Courbet ('L'origine du monde') and Vincent Van Gogh.
