    DISCOVERING LENIN AT THE ANTARCTICA
    \nMultimedia performance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The performance is based on a real history happend on January 19 2007.
    \nHenry Cookson, Rory Sweet, Rupert Longsdon and Paul Landry are the first people to reach Antarctica’s Pole of Inaccessibility without mechanical assistance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We made it – Lenin is there!!!!!! \u2028<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Temperature: – 34\u00b0C, Wind: -57\u00b0C, Altitude: 3725m <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We reached the POI – the centre Antarctica. When we were within 6km of the position signalled on the GPS we noticed a black point in the horizon – as we got closer an outline of bust started to appear – we could not believe it, a statue of Lenin placed by the Russians in 1958.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    He is standing on a chimney of the old Soviet hut – he is a shoulder bust of Lenin larger than life size. It is made of some plastic composite – he is totally frost free as if he was put there yesterday. It so so very surreal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
