Event, Gasworks, London, 2006. During the preview of the London opening of Lapdogs of the Bourgeoisie, guests were invited who had never before attended a private view. 
Installation. Platform Garantie, Istanbul, 2007. Fevzi Camak, a security guard at Platform Garantie was invited to develop a display of work from the permanent collection of the institution, presented within the larger exhibition of The Lapdogs of the Bourgeoisie. 
Performance, Tensta Konsthall, Stockholm, 2008. In 1976, Swedish artist Kjartan Slettemark dressed up in a poodle costume at an opening at Malmö Konsthall. During his performance, Slettermark turned the situation of the private view, with its complex code of propriety and influence, into a spectacle of dependency and submission. Taking on the role of the lapdog, he continued a long-standing questioning of bourgeoisie culture, hierarchies of value and influence – strands which have continued in the artist’s practice. A remake of the performance, with a newly conceived costume, was made for Lapdogs of the Bourgeoisie more than thirty years later.

Performance. Townhouse Gallery, Cairo, 2009. Two local actors were invited to take on the role as exhibition curators. During the two opening days, they held the opening speeches, gave interviews and acted as the outward-facing spokespersons of the exhibition. We are not who you think we are 1-5
We are not who you think we are the overarching title of a series of works all revolving around the latent symbolic of art world hierarchies.
