READINGS. PERFORMANCES. SCREENINGS. STREAMINGS.
“They are there to get some soap, to wash off the stink of the road, to buy some beer and some Nutella to feed their sugar starved souls.” In this ‘NIGHT SHOP’ the members of the N6 group Els Dietvorst, Orla Barry, Wim Cuyvers, Johanna Kirsch and Nikolaus Gansterer will share their last reactions to a project they submitted themselves to for two years. In these readings, drawing performances, screenings and steamings they attempt to share with an audience in a live context the fragility of putting oneself out there alone on the Chaussée de Mons/Bergensesteenweg. They draw the trip, reproduce the dead ends, the side tracks, the T-junctions, the roundabouts, the disconcentrations, the traffic, the street walkers, the desolate bus-stops, the strange poetry of bilingual street signs and shop fronts. They will give a testimony of the stories they found or invented along the N6; stories that deal with the individuality of our society, the growing aggression, the solitude, the hopelessness and the continued gobbling of the landscape by the concrete web.
