Confidences / Production - Ivan Cheng

£15.00

After 8 Books is excited to announce the release of Confidences / Production, the latest instalment in Ivan Cheng’s Confidences series, published in collaboration with Monash University Museum of Art | MUMA, Naarm/Melbourne. Conlan Eliseu is a vampire and an out-of-vogue fashion stylist who takes a job as an advisor at the Gatlin Finishing School, a three-year vocational program for talented teens in a theatre town. Human teen Doeke Schreyer wants to be a star and isn’t afraid of hard work. He just can’t seem to get it. Will his corporeal charms help him exceed the curse on his name, inherited from his adoptive parents? Confidences / Production deals with the process of keeping the past alive, whether as image or restaging. It is the fourth instalment in Ivan Cheng’s Confidences series, which uses the figure of the vampire as shorthand for cultural movement. The narrative contains excerpts or elements from scripts by the artist, as well as documents and reflections on the tradition and transmission of theatre. Designed by Sabo Day, assisted by with Augustinas Milkus Published in collaboration with Monash University Museum of Art, MUMA
