Generation 2000 against total chaos (part 76)

- Posição 2004: your memories. Next?
- Khalil Charif. I've already mentioned his typewritten work. It was this text that he typed on a piece of cheap bread-wrapping paper. It had some stamps I don't remember. Anyway, it had something to do with art as bursting through our barriers, like an overflown cup. Man, was he right about what was going to happen! I'll say it again: we were lucky nobody got accidentally killed on that opening night, for the drunken crowd went quite crazy, and it was too big, and someone could have easily dived head first into the empty pool. Thank God it all ended up well! As for Khalil, I believe he summed up the overall feeling of being inside a war and founding a haven in the art show, where we could be a bit more ourselves. Nice going!
