Encountering something that is recognisable out of its original context broadens what would be a readymade work beyond a specific time and place.\nWhile the flowers and bushes in the flower bed are timeless, they can be replanted and thereby activate the new space around them in a similar way as spotting them in the film would do after they have simultaneously become significant by this new reciprocity.\n\nOne of the questions surrounding them could then be, if then that part of its new city turns automatically in some sort of Teorema filmset, how that city today differs from Milan in 1968, drawing attention to the before-mentioned subjects that the film is interested in addressing, in turn bringing those in the mind of anyone who, informed, comes to the work and looks at what takes place in its new context, its streets, together with it.","space":"For its location, in the open air, as a public sculpture, the project would be best utilised a-long a road verge, a flower bed accessible to traffic and\/or pedestrians, while being institutionally embedded in an exhibition or the BIENALSUR itself. The original green bed is rectangular and measures approximately 15 by 7 meters, which would be covered with fresh earth, and vegetation such as flowers (primula, in yellow and purple), and a number of bushes and young trees.","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"fileCount":3,"names":"Tim","surname":"Neutel","email":"timneutel@gmail.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"IPJ1416D1","address":"Rodenrijsstraat 68, 1062 JA","city":"Amsterdam","nacionality":"Dutch","country_id":"169","birthdate":"1994-06-19T22:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1994-06-19T22:00:00.000Z","telephone":"0615284673","web":"timneutel.com"}
