Luftballet is automatic art of the 21st century. Soap and skin, which forcefully, with the fragility of fifty-seven light bodies, transcend the impotence of the avantgarde. It is a vulgar machine/automaton and the softest, visionary artistic deception. A barefaced lie! The moment of silence, which - precisely because of the superficiality and simplicity of the moment - fascinates with a privileged gaze to the anxious sphere of light. This is the technology of liberation!

Luftballett je samodejna umetnost 21. stoletja. Milo in koža, ki močno, s krhkostjo sedeminpetdesetih svetlobnih teles, presegata nemoč avantgarde. Je vulgarni avtomat in najnežnejša, vizionarska umetniška prevara. Čista laž! Trenutek tišine, ki - prav zaradi površnosti in enostavnosti trenutka - fascinira s privilegiranim pogledom v tesnobno območje svetlobe. To je tehnologija osvoboditve!
