Programme Note
"...a person who demands attention purely by her being there...
processes of development are not unfolded, but instead "conditions of being" are presented in hard-edged sections that cut into each other.
...figures that did nothing but simply were."
on Gertrude Stein's book Ida, Suhrkamp Verlag
