Against the backdrop of Isa Genzken’s stark sculptures in the Whitechapel Gallery, Tim Crouch and his co-performer recount, with uncomfortable pauses, the progress of a crippling cardiac disease.
Only when the pair meet the widow of the man whose heart now beats in another’s body does the production really grip, as the value of art – in different cultures, to different lives, and in different situations – comes under scrutiny.
Whitechapel Art Gallery, Whitechapel High St, E1 7QX Aldgate East (020 7452 3000). Until Jun 16, £15
