I Will Never Say,  performance by Dan Allon, part of I am NOT Tino Sehgal, Nahmad Projects, London, UK (2016)

​

In this 6-hour performance, Allon sits in the gallery on a sofa, wearing studio clothes, glasses, and worn sneakers, watching a paused BBC documentary on the financial value of painting. He invites a visitor to sit and recounts bidding 80,000 on a late signed painting bought for someone else: “I will never say whom I bought it for.” Tapping his feet, lost in thought, he returns to the paused screen, blending presence, narrative, and secrecy into a tense, intimate meditation on art, value, and desire.
