SAD BUT TRUE / 2010



video, 5', 36''



exhibition view


a video in which I perform the song "Sad but True" by Metallica

on each of the five monitors I'm shown performing the score: rhythm guitar, lead guitar, bass guitar, drums and vocals

although I have little or no knowledge of playing the instruments, I try my best

despite the efforts the result is miserable

doing things that go beyond one's competences, knowledge and capabilities

lack of respect towards other people's work and achievements

pretentious setting; high technology is used to hide the obvious incompetence

the work is a projection of the present moment in society

posters were used to advertise the video for the exhibition catalogue
