Interesting title!
Slavoj Zizek:
"Death drive is basically [...] the Freudian term for immortality. Death drive has nothing to do [...] with this so-called nirvana principle where everything wants to disappear, and so on. If anything [...] death drive is that which prevents you from dying. Death drive is that which persists beyond life and death."
It is a "terrifying insistence beneath death [...]it can be dead, but it goes on. This terrifying insistence of an undead object."

that is pretty cool, works so well with the subject, hopefully i will go to the exhibition and then i can see if it is referred to, you would have hoped it would be.
