Kaunas) was presented project of the latvian artist Kaspars Podnieks
“Rommel's Dairy”. Curator Ilze Žeivate.*

*This artist's project received huge audience appreciation in 55th Venice
biennial, where Kaspars Podnieks represented Latvia (together with Kriss
Salmanis).*

*The cow does not move. She just stands and watches blankly while all the
others around her are working* *the ropes and trying to encourage her. *

*The cow must be in the shot on approximately the 30th second, which she of
course does not manage to do. Although to be fair, if only this cow’s brain
was half as big as her udder, then it would be her who is indignant to how
stupid everyone here is, and what she is doing here at all. *

*And then of course in the yard there are tractors and those weird
constructions, which can lift men up one by one. Lift them up and hold them
up there. And right opposite it, seated on another costruction, a
photographer with a camera and projectors. He is shooting and taking
pictures of the other guy lifted up and*
*standing there... *
