Michel CARDENA

Black on white stock pages interleved with translucent sheets with blue and red designs by the artist. Transparent dust jacket with white and red print. The black and white reproductions show the set up, related video works and dancers performing. Introduction by Dr Rebeca Galera de Toro. The work consisted of 'live-video-performance for 2 dancers, 1 musician, 12 cameras, 3 faders, 1 wiper etc. etc. etc.'. Performed at Galerie de appel. Published by the artists 'Warming Up etc. etc. etc.' company, which took its name from Cardena's proposal that the art in the Netherlands and Europe was too 'cold' and logical, and needed to be warmed up. Cardena exemplified this in works such as rolling a canvas with a Mondrian painting (reproduced) on it, round the skewer of a spit roast machine, and cooking it, and also burning installations of 'Mondrian' canvases.
