Rakowitz’s Lamassu is made from empty tins of Iraqi date syrup, alluding to the fact that historical monuments are not the only thing destroyed by war; they also decimate local economies, including the industry for date syrup which collapsed as a result of the war.  A House With A Date Palm Will Never Starve by Michael Rakowitz is out June 2019, published by Plinth Instagram: @PlinthUk Twitter: @PlinthUkArt See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
