Boudoir

The Théâtre de Vidy from Lausanne is coming to the Schiffbau with selected productions

Welcome to the boudoir, that room in the bourgeois house reserved for women, and which Sade developed into a practical philosophy, for here the body and intimacy are revealed to be political. South African artist Steven Cohen’s boudoir is elegant, melancholic and cruel. The delicate refinement of the furniture and ornaments awakens intimate memories of colonial, political or religious violence, while he – or the fairy-like being he embodies – physically confronts history.
