Oooooh, thats a man in distress!

[clcampello]

Is that dino famous? Because i really think you should have bought Barney... ;)

[mrkozz]

This is absolutely fantastic! This needs to be required viewing for all contemporary artists, installation or otherwise. They should be tied to a broken leather wingback chair and "clockwork orange"-d to watch this!

Huge Thanks!

I am a painter and art teacher at a Turkish university. One of the courses I teach is on contemporary art. I must say that the video series "How to make contemporary installation art" summurises the main points I am trying to get accross in the classroom about the contemporary art production in general. they are so funy and hit right on the target. I am using them as a part of my teaching material.

fucking hilarious

[talkvideos]

You have just explained the M.O. behind most of the art made at the turn of the century. Pretty cool! I guess action IS a higher form than thought.

I wrote art criticism for 10 years. After fighting with editors, I gave up and did this project. It has all that experience in it. For me it was like physical art criticism, or curating without specific artists. - don

[crinna]

Through your criticism in action you became the artist. but if the critics become the artists who will criticize?!! :0 you have single handily (or multiple femo handily) pulled the the thread of the frayed edge of the fabric of fine art. yah!

[donnietheg]

Thanks Crinna. I found when I was a critic that I could not engage in art criticism. There were too many conventions dictating what could and couldn't be said. For example, I felt that it was impossible to engage the definition of art, which is the core of the critics work. Nor was it possible to do the job of feeding the production of art with ideas and observations... (continued)

[donnietheg]

(continuation) There was also little room to develop one's critical perspective. So one ended up either taking on an available critical stance or appearing lost in exploration. So I was forced to find other channels and that's what opened up the creative space to actually make EEOOY.

what makes installation art is the originality. the more you can be simple and still amaze people the better.

[rattlebrained]

I used to have pants like that! Thanks for posting these, they're really good.

[donnietheg]

Yes and instead of painting landscapes you make installation art. Doesn't that make sense in the '00s? I mean, there is 100 years of modern art behind us...

[abeferraro]

Hilariously funny mockamentary moments and yet deadly serious core...its hard to figure out when the joke ends and where the real art begins. Fodder for thought!

Fun stuff..this will go right over the heads of

stuffed shirts everywhere!
