Critical

Mount Average

Mount Average is about the struggle of how we deal with the past and how history carved in stone becomes a problem today.

Mount Average is a factory that works with monuments of leaders, politicians and intellectuals. From Leopold II, to Hitler or Colbert. The monuments are the “raw material” for a process of transformation. Mount Average is a highly efficient factory that produces nothing. It is about an ongoing process of creating and deconstructing. About doing and not doing. About finding and letting go. The factory sets a process in motion that revolves around becoming.

Staging the Treaty

Directed by Louise Lowe.
