Terence gives us a Tenor

Hot US artist Terence Koh has moved on from the gold-plated turds he presented at Art Basel in 2006, by launching an imaginary opera, (Adansonias) in eight acts at Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac in Paris this week (act one kicks off on 6 October with part eight unveiled during FIAC on 22 October). "Within the story, loosely based on 'The Little Prince', we find elements from Samuel Beckett’s 'Waiting for Godot' and the French New Wave, punctuated by experimental live music and singing. Koh will play a piece of music composed using only the white keys of a piano...the artist has invited surprise guest actors to perform on the opening night of the first act of Adansonias," exclaims the gallery. Keep us on tenterhooks why don't you Terence.
