Second Culture Sleep Over at Mobius

mobius.jpg Students from Massachusetts College of Art will be "dining and sleeping in the public domain" during "Second Culture Sleep Over" in the windows of Mobius' new Boston artspace. Tonight, November 26, 2007, Milan Kohout of Mobius Artists Group and his performance art students will have dinner and sleep over in the artist-run space's floor-to-ceiling windows in full view of the street to "dissolve the sense of private space and turn it into a space very nearly in the public domain." The group is exploring the Czech underground movement idea of "Second Culture," which initiated a peaceful revolution in Czechoslovakia in 1989. Kohout, a Czech native, was a member of the "Second Culture" artist's movement and of the dissident human-rights organization Charter 77, a group of artists and activists nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1985.
