the Collector:
Bazel

20 – 22 march 2009

Theatre group: Dood Paard

Every year during Tefaf, Marres organizes a project that focusses on the position of The Collector. This year Marres presents, in co-operation with theatre group Dood Paard, Bazel, a play by Willem de Wolf about the art trade and the untameable drifts of an art collector. 

A collector of contemporary art and his friend visit the art fair in Bazel. For three days they stroll passed endlessly white walls filled with art. The expert and the outsider. When the art collector has a date with a beautiful, dark guy the mood start to change and the dark and amoral sides of beauty start to reveil themselves.
