'Art' is still there, because the event itself makes increases its aura, makes is more iconic. This makes it irrelevant what is actually painted. By exhibiting the empty spaces, recursion emerges. Everything is made in china these days, why not art, especially when content does not seek or need authenticity any more.



PRODUCTION

  • Reproduce in a studio environment the empty spots (the gallery filled the spots already and they refused to give any information, comment on the incident)

Gray wall, white wall, metal wires, hooks, antique image frames, painting title date and name tags

    • Collect and borrow antique frames
    • USE FLASH to make it more photorealistic in an absurd way.
  • Sending electronically the photos to a Chinese painting reproduction company. The company will produce the oil paintings according to the photographs.



Alternative project versions
