“Не буває тираній, які б не намагалися обмежити мистецтво, бо вони бачать його силу. Тільки мистецтво передає почуття.”

In 2012 M HKA and ORLAN re-enact the MesuRAGE performances, based on documentary and production material stored in the ICC archive, ORLAN not only have creates two new MesuRAGE performances, at the M HKA and the Andy Warhol Foundation in Pittsburgh, she also creates a blow up sculpture of the performance, which took place over a quarter of a century earlier in Liège. In it she combines two images that were crucial to her in Liège, the bulldozer and her own person, reminiscent of the Statue of Liberty. She holds out a bottle filled with the dirt once caked on her white dress.
