focAR group's picture

MOnuMENTS in conjunction with The Travellers Box Project

On 15th of April focAr group set off together with Travellers Box for the second time. The event took place in the very heart of London and consisted of a performance-journey. The action documented monuments located on the National Gallery – House of Parliament route. These monuments commemorate the heroes from wars or representative personalities for British space. The two members of the group placed a flower bouquet at each monument and held a silent moment in the heroes’ memory.  read more »

- Claes Oldenburg
