Lawrence Weiner Redux. Christopher Robbins (2008).
Befuddled enactment of Lawrence Weiner 1969 instruction piece
Once upon a time there was a country, and its capital was Belgrade...
In 1969, Lawrence Weiner laid out his instruction piece A STAKE SET IN THE GROUND IN DIRECT LINE WITH A STAKE SET IN THE GROUND OF AN ADJACENT COUNTRY. In 2008, I performed this seemingly straight-forward piece, in a way that casts doubt as to whether or not I have faithfully followed his instructions:
I placed one stake in Serbia, and one stake in Kosovo.
This piece was featured in the book
Migrating Reality.
