Bar Accu was a type of gesamtkunstwerk in collaboration with chef Rens Pörtzgen, design studio Atelier Fig and artist Matthieu Reijnoudt as a part of the exhibition Dinner Conversations at Omstand Arnhem. Together they created a pop-up restaurant in one of the exhibition spaces. One of the items on the menu was a performance called A dishwasher mantra. When ordered Matthieu Reijnoudt would enter the restaurant as a dishwasher, repeating a mantra that revolved around the questions ‘am I a container? Am I a dispenser’? While chanting he created repetitive patterns with soap on a cutting board. (pictures 1 and 3 by Django van Ardenne)
