ROMANOVSKI, Denis

Presented by FADO Performance Art Centre

(manifesto fragment)
To mean nothing – that’s OK.
To have money and to be hungry – that’s OK.
To do nothing under surveillance – that’s OK.
To wait for better times and to be still alive – that’s OK.
To hate museums and rebellions – that’s OK.
To sing for old people and to dance with strangers – that’s OK.
Etc.

– That’s OK manifesto written in collaboration with Kungl. Konsthögskolan (KKH) students.
