‘Andrew Beyer’, a video-work from ‘Paradise’ by Kutlug Ataman
“I enjoy doing it because people remember me. I am also now in the Guinness Book of Records as the worlds oldest performing clown in the whole world. I have a certificate I show at my performances. It is also in the book, on page twenty-one in this year’s edition. I’ve been retired now from my regular job for about twenty-five years. But still I enjoy doing the parties, and I enjoy having people tell me that they remember me for so long.”

Below are two nice documentation-videos of the installation, made in SMAK, Ghent in 2009.

The first film and latest film by Sarah Morris, both alienating and seducing at the same time. ‘BEIJING’ shot during the Olympic Games in 2008, ‘Midtown’ 10 years earlier in New York City.
