Disco Guantanamo
Museum of Modern Art Grand Duc Jean, Luxembourg
2008

The concept of this work was to create an antechamber of a political mainstream pop world, using the notions of Guy Debord's The Society of the Spectacle. A song, a brand, a sort of corporate idendity developped a dialogue with the precarious pencil drawings, representing scenes of contemporary Stations of the Cross. Ironically only the title of the piece points out on the american detention camp of Guantanamo Bay, suggesting that the media and politcal world became an entertaining detention camp for our souls.
