Playground

In Order of Appearance questions ways of presenting an artwork. The presentation takes place amidst architecture
made of paper, modelled on the white cube of the museum. This draft version of the gallery space is used here as an operating table, an abstract playground where objects and artworks are transformed in one way and then another, exploring their identity and functions. It is a subtle choreography of signs with a prompter’s box as the uninvited guest.

Last year’s edition of Playground, Aurélien Froment presented his remarkable film Théatre de Poche. His latest creation, In Order of Appearance, is a joint project with Youri Dirkx (Tristero). After the premiere in Leuven, this wordless production will be presented in Paris (Centre Pompidou), New York (PERFORMA Festival) and Amsterdam (If I Can’t Dance, I Don’t Want to be Part of Your Revolution).
