The jig is up. I have to write a paper.
Among other things, it is time to decide what to call “the other“.
How does one do that when…
A viewer needs something to view and sometimes there is nothing to view.
Audience is too passive. Participant too watered down.
Reader might be better, but still not active enough in some cases. In cases where the other is the artist. And the artist is not the artist, not the architect, more a gardener, sometimes a curator?
And where the hell’s the curator?
No one is in the gallery. Everyone is outside. Or on the subway, or at the mall or at home on the computer.
Nobody’s home.
The curator’s playing basketball. She’s the playermaker. Or is that the artist? I can’t see from here.
These seats are crap!
