La
Ribot
is the most charismatic representative of Spanish avant garde performance, and
one of Europe’s leading live art personalities. Still Distinguished
is the third part of her project, commenced in 1993, to create a hundred unique
physical snapshots which aim to reach the essence of ideas. Presented in the
form of short, concise solos, lasting anything from 30 seconds to 7 minutes,
these latest pieces will be presented in a non-theatrical convention, with the
audience free to circulate around the space, able to see the performance from
different viewpoints. Somewhere between performance and visual art, between
Marcel Duchamp and Pina Bausch, La Ribot’s tableaux vivants are shaped
by clarity and wry humour. As with other works of art, each piece is available
for sale to ‘distinguished proprietors'.
