DROP DEAD. PRAGUE QUADRENNIAL. SPANISH PAVILION PQ15

Concept and set design: José Luis Raymond

We live in a society of technological development and instant information and communication. Changes are global, and have political and social consequences. Change forms part of life, and artistic creation has to continue meeting the social and technological challenges of the 21st century.

We would like to invite you to enter an installation that functions as a dramatic, stage artefact based on metaphorical death, in the way suggested by the classic playwrights of the Spanish Golden Age (16th-17th century)

We aim to show that social evolution is an unstoppable process and that anyone who does not accept this reality might as well be “dead” as a citizen. This space of light, shadow, messages and music aims to shake individuals into accepting their human condition.
