QUIERO UN DEBATE PUBLICO CON ESTA TARADA! | LOVEARTNOTPEOPLE. Nunca estará de más cuestionar el mal arte, o anti-arte, como lo llama la autora de este implacable diccionario que desnuda imposturas, ideas y actitudes que se han incrustado en el ámbito del arte contemporáneo. © Martin Creed Arte burgués.— Es un anti-arte burgués y ocioso que desprecia el trabajo. Artistas que no trabajan, no estudian, no hacen. Roban, copian, designan, sobrevalúan sus objetos por un capricho de la moda, exaltan el consumismo. Es el gran elogio a la decadencia del capitalismo. Arte conceptual o contemporáneo. Arte contemporáneo y otras artes.— La música, el teatro, la literatura, la danza, el cine llevan lo de ser contemporáneos con otra perspectiva. Arte que nadie se roba.— El criterio del ladrón es el del sentido común, la realidad de que todas las obras son lo que son: una pintura es una pintura, un dibujo es un dibujo, una lata vacía es una lata vacía y un escusado es un escusado.

Artista, requisito para ser…— El requisito es no saber hacer las cosas para hacerlas.

Museos y exposiciones

Teatro. Drinkify. Cineteca Nacional México. Mystical Indoor Rain Room Where Visitors Don't Get Wet. This interactive artwork by Random International allows visitors to experience the rain whenever they feel like it. Based in London, Random International studio creates all kinds of installations that explore behavior and interaction, often using light and movement as the foundation for their artworks. The Rain Room, an exhibition supported by the Arts Council England and made possible by the generous support of the Maxine and Stuart Frankel Foundation for Art, is located at the Curve in the Barbican Centre in London. It's a free installation that runs from October 4 until March 3, 2013. In the exhibit, a 100 square meter grate hangs overhead in the center of the room, from which a continuously falling rain shower streams. Visitors become part of the installation as they walk, move, and spin among the drops, feeling what it might be like to actually control the weather!

Random International website via [The Telegraph] Judith Ann Braun's Fingers Are Magical. With an art career spanning more than three decades, Judith Ann Braun has tested the limits of her artistic musculature. She began as a self-described “realistic figure painter,” and worked through the struggles common to anyone who endeavors upon an artistic pursuit, that of searching for one’s own voice in the chosen medium. Fast forward to the 21st century where the evolution of Braun’s work has brought us to the Fingerings series, a collection of charcoal dust landscapes and abstracts “painted” using not brushes but her fingertips.

Braun has a specific interest in symmetry, as evidenced by the patterns she follows in a number of the Fingerings pieces as well as work in the Symmetrical Procedures collection. Her fingerprints are obvious up close in some of the paintings, though a step back and the grandeur of Braun’s imagination sprawls into a landscape of soft hills, overhanging trees, delicate florals, and a reflective waterway.
