Humour
Humour has a critical dimension. To laugh can be a way of abstructing yourself from a situation, a way of negating its reality.
Humour can be a double-engaged weapon... The Last Clown 2000 was trying to illustrate that situation, with the artist and curator in their ultimate roles: the great entertainers, the acrobats, the ones expected to fall.
Perhaps because of its ridiculous or absurd quality, an artistic action becomes excusable, and sometimes it can make its way through unlikely situations because it simply cannot be taken seriously. Humour - or a humorous dimension - often allows you to bypass situations that would not otherwise have been allowed to happen if I had, for instance, a militant attitude.
