Artist: Felix Gonzalez Torres

Felix Gonzalez Torres is a America, Cuba-born artist. His is known of his minimal installations and sculptures in the mid 80’s. I’m naming him in my research because he made work what become famous because it was ‘removable’. Felix made called ‘process art’. In his installations process was the key feature to the installation. For example the could take a piece of the work with them, like the candy in the picture. In so doing, contribute to the show disappearance of the sculpture over the course of the exhibition.

The possibility for endless reproducibility’s, the work is disseminated, to exist in multiple places at the same time and to be realized completely only through the participation of the viewer, which he described:

“One enormous collaboration with the public. The piece are like a virus.” - Felix Gonzalez Torres

The work of Felix changes over time, but in the end it will be gone. So a process, I don’t see. I want the viewer to contribute and to create something with the work, than just take it with them. The viewer creates the process from the work, a work that’s never done, or finished. You need each other to create the work.
