"Rocking Chair", performance
Andrei Ciubotaru, Theo Pelmus, ªtefan Tiron, Art Academy, Bucharest
(February 2001)

A performance about the dangers of fame in contemporary art world. Fame can catch the aspiring young artist unawares, it can take him or her to hitherto undreamed of heights of prestige and then through him or her into an abyss of despair."Rocking Chair" imagined an ironic alternative to that trajectory, a way of rationalising fame, of dividing it in equal shares between two artists, who would know in turn the joy of success and the
desolation of failure, the entire process being supervised by an art critic.
