David Sherry - Left Luggage - Turin - Thursday 7th June 2012

David Sherry - Left Luggage Porta Nuova Metro Station, Torino Thursday 7th June 2012 Performance Times: 12.00 - 13.00, 16.00 - 17.00 We are pleased to announce a second invitation to Turin for the Glasgow based artist David Sherry. This follows a well received performance in the city last year, as part of our ongoing cultural exchange between Glasgow and Turin. Left Luggage David Sherry's new presentation in the main Metro Station Porta Nuova in Turin, makes reference to public transport announcements concerning unattended luggage. The performance highlights the paranoia surrounding left luggage which exists within the routine of travel. The artist performs as a piece of 'living luggage' waiting for an answer to this paradox.
