8.0/10 13 min

Overview

An "action" by Michel Journiac, performed at the book fair on March the 16th, 1993, where he exhibited 150 poems marked with his own blood. Michel Journiac had a blood sample taken in public and then spread the blood on three plexiglass plaques on which Fernando Pessoa's words were written : "Outside all this, there is Christ, who knew nothing about finance - and, it seems, didn't have a library". The works were then attached to a background and exhibited before the public.
