2025-02-24 00:07:14 +0000 UTCPerformance Art has a fucking wild history, Maria Abramovic had a piece (Rhythm 0) where she let anyone use a tool (hammer, saw, gun (with a fucking live bullet), feather) on her at an art museum over an 8 hour period. People literally cut her, inlcuding her neck, assualted her sexually, one guy put the bullet in the gun, and put it to her head and put his finger on the trigger to see if she would flinch. So yeah like slipping on butter is kind of cringe but it's the audiences reaction and how the piece is perceived which is often more interesting. As is all art https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2023/3/30/maria-abramovic-performance-art-rhythm0-article/

2025-02-19 10:18:30 +0000 UTCI had to sit through a couple of performances like the butter lady’s in art school, and in my opinion the problem with these ‘concept artists’ is that generally their ideas are imposed in an artificial way to give value to works that, without accumulating explanations, could never be seen as art. It’s all based around the admittedly beautiful, but ultimately self-indulgent story that -like Nigel said- "everything’s art", and everyone has been an artist since birth, therefore any action performed by them, from getting naked and covering themselves in white paint and leaving a dick print on black cardboard to duct taping a banana to a wall to dancing on butter, becomes art. So I think that arrogance results in a collection of clichés elevated to a status that just does not belong to them.

2025-02-14 11:22:41 +0000 UTCI was listening to this at work, so not being able to see the context was something 😅 but yeah it seems like that performance art was by Melati Suryodarmo where the art represents: "The aim of making this work is to get up. You can fail, but you do it anyway." It seemed a bit interesting after reading this, but it might just be my art brain 😅 https://artasiapacific.com/people/the-essential-works-of-melati-suryodarmo
