Filip Petcu_2009_The Car- A protest against global warming

Filip Petcu @ BERGAMA – TURKEY. The team of participants is<br />international: (Romania, Poland, Slovakia, Turkey, Belgium). The idea of this installation-happing occured spontaneous caused by a sparkle of contingent inspiration. Concept and coordination of the installation-happening belong to Filip Petcu ©2009.Photos and movie: by Filip Petcu ©2009The present car is picked up from a car cemetery and mounted in downtown Bergama ( the ancient city of Pergamon ) in the western part of now-a-days Turkey. The Mustang becomes by will of the artist and through help of his team-mates and communitarians a newsboard for the messages of the people passing by, concerned by the issue of global warming,<br />which is presumtively caused by high level of global consumerism which<br />contributes to accelerated rythmes of radical changes in traditionalist<br />societies.The Mustang becomes an anti-product, packed in brand new transparent PET-stretch material, almost like similar common enveloped hypermarket products.
