BRIDGE-PERFORMANCES (ongoing worldwide performances outside the art-institutions)
Around the world I am doing Bridge-Performances. These performances are made visual by photographs taken of me by inhabitants or fellow 'tourists' on bridges. I write ‘tourists’ because at the moment of making I am not a tourist but an artist at work.
