Vincent-Emmanuel Guitter's 'More More Holiday' at Collège Marcel Duchamp

Vincent-Emmanuel Guitter's exhibition 'More More Holiday' at Collège Marcel Duchamp in Châteauroux, France, from October 18 to November 22, 2003, presents a multimedia installation that would cease to exist if the local power plant failed. The show features projected still images and an esoteric soundtrack—a Brian Eno piece originally composed for astronauts who preferred country music to Strauss waltzes. The post-apocalyptic visuals depict androgynous mutants with green, blue, or orange hair in verdant pastures, alongside post-industrial machines like turbines and satellite dishes. A small projection at child height shows a mutant with green hair holding a colorful bird in a clearing, with the Gothic inscription 'micca of freiberg'—referencing both the esoteric feminist Micca movement of 1960s America and Sigmund Freud's birthplace. Guitter constructs a cerebral art world on the verge of vanishing, built from fragments of images, words, and sounds, that only becomes art in the viewer's mind. The images originate from La Cerdaña in the Spanish Pyrenees, where Pierre Huyghe led students from Châteauroux on an artistic 'colony' at Guitter's invitation, and where the author of 'Blanche-neige Lucie' spent childhood holidays. The exhibition's only publication was a single page of advertising in the same magazine, with no accompanying commentary.
