"Semper's piece in the Italian Pavilion, FF/REW (1998), which loops around a scenario in which, clad in a vintage slip and worn out sneakers, she hangs herself, reads a book, and shoots herself. Her expression remains one of benign indifference - we are given no specific clues, but we get the message."
