GilbertandGrape
By the Way
In their performance By the Way GilbertandGrape park their Volvo Amazon alongside café’s, galleries and car parks, put up a fake sunset and place a stuffed moose in front. They invite people into the car to choose a nostalgic song to listen too whilst watching the fake sun set. They make a fictional frame from a cliche and within this generate texts and exchange information together with the audience. GilbertandGrape re-present the cliché elg I solnedgang (moose in sunset) and ask what kind of relation do we have to it in contemporary rhetoric?
