The curator, as "wild child", invites the "wild child" within the artist to party on a miniature, imaginary boat on top of a skyscraper. The invitation reads: Here is the ark of the "angels of chaos", which gathers the "savage runaways" of the world, the "artists, anarchists, perverts, heretics", to unite them in a great "destructive epiphany" of water, fire and techno, with the rays of "sensuality, transgression and vision". So sharpen your weapons, "trained in a delirious & obsessive game", and cut the world that separates us! It is a fight against ”the groan-ups of those Lower Planes”, a fight against influence, a spell fuelled by “the spectral brilliance of the wolves & their children”. “Cherishing & unleashing are the same act”: “we & they, the wild ones, are images of each other.”
