Barbara Kraus gives her favorite performance
...
and creates an universe full of different amicable and peculiar genuises,
who just want to be happy and invite troubles as if it would be a ticket
to paradise lost. Sethi, a cosmic alien, once again visits our planet
because it accepts a deep sympathy to the creatures here. Of all people
Johnny, legendary and itchy alterergo of Barbara Kraus, is used for Sethi's
incarnation on earth. In this unintended transcendation Johnny, who first
of course can't do anything with it, accepts assistance of Iggy Pop, who
imagines to be enlighted because he got together with Buddha during the
performance “Fuck all that Shit!” two years ago.
In this performance Barbara Kraus considers attention, handle with available
resources and the chance of get-together with uncertain ending. Barbara
Kraus wishes herself and the audiance a shared space with nothing but
a moment of unintentional present.
„Do
what you love and love what you do.”
For my sisters and the hidden existing diversity.
