Six Metre Statue Of the God Pazuzu Winched Onto Roof Of ICA
A sculpture of the demon god Pazuzu is installed in two parts at the Institiute of Contemprary Art (ICA) on October 9, 2008 in London. The sculpture forms part of the Suillakku exhibition featuring the work of Italian artist Roberto Cuoghi. The work, in the Lower Gallery at the ICA, takes the form of a huge sound installation in which the artist took an imaginary journey back in time to the sixth century BC to the Mesopotamia of the ancient Assyrians. In this aural landscape visitors to the gallery will be surrounded by the voices of hundreds of people.
