In 2020 artist Michael Curran responded to the naming and opening of LICHTEKOOI by making a sound piece with all the correspondence and email exchanges regarding the naming of the space - within this he explored issues around the language used to describe prostitutes, the notion that we are all prostitutes as a result of being embedded within capitalism, the aesthetics and politics of Punk, of naming and of defiance. In a related yet different approach the artist explores other notions of ladies of the night and ladies of the light in his screening of Jacques Rivette 1976 film DUELLE. Prepare to be dazzled.
