In this participative performance, the artist Trixi Weis invites the public to drink in glasses which are cut in half, a representation of a glass for times of economical crisis. The visitor has to make more efforts to hold it horizontally, to get less of the beverage and learn again to appreciate tasting the precious liquid.
The performance was created recently for the opening of the group show Hors-d'oeuvre taking place in the gallery Ratskeller at Cercle Cité running until 21.01.2024, curated by Anastasia Chaguidouline.
