SECRET STRIKE(Tate Modern, 2006)

VIDEO

Tate Modern is an icon of culture, exhibitions that take place in the museum have an input in what happens in the rest of the Art World and also in the art market. At the same time it is a place where performance is takes place. I thought it was important to make a performance concerning the everyday life of this building and the people who work in it. We stopped in every floor, the ones that were opened for public and the private ones. We worked with the employees and the visitors who became a part of the performance. As we stopped the culture for a while we saw this big machine of production and creativity working. It is as a place for art that is theatrically prepared to open our emotions and our intellect. The film tries to show what is behind the walls.
