Selling The Flamingo
1989, 07:30 minutes, colour, English
TAPECODE 10141
The artist looks at memory and sentiment through the liquidation of one of Winnipeg's premiere landmarks, The Flamingo Motel.
Featured in the video is the most laid-back, fast-talking auctioneer ever. Evident throughout the tape is the reality that nothing is without a dollar value, from beds with just a little lovin' on them, to a motel which was once the beacon of the Pembina Strip.
