Changing Sheets
In this project i printed the image of Eugéne Delacroix's Liberty Leading the People on high-quality satin sheets. I then tried to get a brothel in Tel-Aviv's red-light district to allow me and a female friend to change the sheets they use with the sheets i printed.
After rejections at a number of bordellos, we came up with a plausible story which finally opened the door: "we need the room for 15 minutes." We paid 75 NIS (the man initially wanted 150) and were allowed in.
The room was so cramped that the photographer had to stand outside the room to take the pictures.
On the sheet taken from the brothel i printed Delacroix's image again and this is what was shown (along with photos of the action) at the Barbur gallery. |
