LABoral is looking for collaborators who would like to participate in the development of one of the pieces in the exhibition el proceso como paradigma, which opens on Friday, April 23rd.
The installation Love, Piracy, and the Office of Religious Weblog Expansion, by artists Manu Luksch and Mukul Patel, is a performative and collective reading piece based on an interview with the Iranian philosopher Ali Alizadeh; a text of 1,500 words that deals with censorship in Iran from the revolution of 1979 to the present day.
The volunteers will have to carefully cross out all the words in the text except one, which is different in each book.
The censorship exercise, for which we are looking for volunteers, will take place from Monday to Sunday (except Tuesday), two hours to be chosen between 4 and 7 in the afternoon, in the installation that the artists will have at LABoral from the 23rd of April.
Each volunteer will receive a catalogue of the exhibition el proceso como paradigma and a Friend of LABoral card.
The project continues online, as an experiment in collective reading. On the web, the interview appears completely censored. When the crossed-out copies start to move, the owners of the books will be able to enter the website and make visible online the only word that has not been censored in their copy.
