A monumental rat-trap

” ‘ rat-trap‘ – one of the cruel objects  –  retrieved from the memory store.                           

A MONUMENTAL RAT-TRAP
It was made in 1972. In a dictionary of modern art a work of art of this kind is called “an installation”. It was used in Cricot 2 Theatre in the staging of Lovelies and Dowdies by S.I. Witkiewicz.

It fitted into the idea of the theatre and the point in the development of Cricot 2 Theatre that is known as “Impossible Theatre”.”
