Preface
When the form of ones art is belittled, the creative mind turns to schemes, distractions , and many many bad ideas.
idea #1
Red tape art show:
Goal: replicate beurocractic systems to create a familiar environment in a gallery setting. visitor walks into gallery and takes a number. Art is visible, but inaccessible due to a maze of low grey walls. The visitor is given a form to fill out. (questions determined by the artist. Goal is to determine aesthetic or conceptual presence). Visitor moves to waiting room. Form is processed by artist, and viewer is led to one of many pieces of art on view. Piece should match their survey (inspire pleasure or disgust). If they wanted to request a modified viewing option, they must take another number and repeat process.
