When I saw Paulo Canevari's video at Venice this year i was really blown away. His work in this show is fab as well. The dog barks and barks and barks, and then the pig tries to eat the rabbit then the dog barks again.
“My video work “Continents”, 2005 that I’m showing at P.S.1 is about the prejudices and fears we have towards “others” and the political division that the “Democracy” and the so called “Modern Society” brought upon the world. This division mainly happened during the colonialism of the 19th and 20th Centuries, without any control by the natives and without taking into any account the natural geographical borders.” He explained.
