Annika Larsson’s project The Discourse of the Drinkers is exploring the bar as a social and political space. It borrows its title from a chapter in François Rabelais’s 16th Century comic novels on The Life of Gargantua and of Pantagruel. Interested in acts of transgression (identities and borders), the project sets out to explore the political and social potential of the body, its capacity of overturning our habitual course and to change the order of things (through intoxication, poetry, music, movement, performance and laughter).
