Roman Signer – Rotes Tuch
A red flag was stuck soaking wet on a flagpole in Beijing. Back in Switzerland on August 1st, I saw a red flag that had become wet from the rain and was stuck to a flagpole. In both cases I only saw a red strip of cloth on a pole. I thought it can't be the colour that annoys some people here in Switzerland. It's rather the shape of a flag. A red flag. In this installation a piece of cloth rises to the ceiling and then slowly floats back to the floor. The cloth has the shape of a square and is RED. For me, colour is not political. – Roman Signer
