Dana Degiulio & Eliot Porter: I Work All Day and Night
@ Night Club
2017 W. Moffat, Suite 1. Chicago, IL 60647
Opening Friday, December 6th, from 7PM - 9PM
On view through Sunday, January 5th
I work all day like a monk
and at night wander about like an alleycat
looking for love…I’ll propose
to the Church that I be made a saint.
In fact I respond to mystification
with mildness. I watch the lynch-mob
as through a camera-eye.
With the calm courage of a scientist,
I watch myself being massacred.
I seem to feel hate and yet I write
verses full of painstaking love.
I study treachery as a fatal phenomenon,
almost as if I were not its object.
I pity the young fascists,
and the old ones, whom I consider forms
of the most horrible evil, I oppose
only with the violence of reason.
Passive as a bird that sees all, in flight,
and carries in its heart,
rising in the sky,
an unforgiving conscience.
“I Work All Day”
Pier Paolo Pasolini
1964
