Psychics IV : Sally Degener-Porter/ De Appel, Nieuwe
Spiegelstraat 10, Amsterdam
Video, 20 mn, 2006
A series of psychic readings of spaces, commissioned by the
artist in an attempt at connecting with the past of domestic or
exhibition spaces, despite the limitations of rational discourse.
The
video is not
edited, respecting the actual duration of the performance.
In this
particular case, the psychic is looking at the past of the De Appel
building, which used to accommodate the Jewish bank Lippmann, Rosenthal
& Co.
