Searching for rue Simon-Crubellier is an art project which includes this video. The work takes as a point of departure the experience of being Australians in Paris and reading George Perec's book Life a User's Manual. In this book Perec creates a puzzle of a novel set in a building located in the 17th arr. of Paris at number 11 rue Simon-Crubellier.

Searching for rue Simon-Crubellier is processed based. It is an actual search for an imaginary place - exploring actual and imagined relations to place. It poses the question: is it possible to bring something that does not exist into existence by searching for it?

  • It is not written in the book, but a part of Bartlebooth fortune has been used to "erase" the rue Simon-Crubellier both physically and from all the maps and memories. That's the reason why you can not find it. My grandmother, Angele Winckler told me once that she went there once.
