Description by Filmoteka Muzeum

In the two videos entitled Everything Has Been Done the Azorro Super Group confronts the paradigm of originality in art. The absurd exchange of innovative ideas for a work of art, each of which turns out to have already been used, undermines the requirement of uniqueness imposed on artists.

Parallel screening of two films on the neighbouring walls of the gallery amplifies the effect, boosting the sense of irrationality of the conversation, while questioning its originality at the same time.
