Can Art be Humble?

Julia Bradshaw


About this episode

TV-UN

With a respectful nod to the Maintenance Art of Mierle Laderman Ukeles and Zhan Wang's Ruin Cleaning Project, 1994, in this satirical video project the 'artist' contemplates whether art (or artists) can be humble given this current climate of art as a consumer product. This project critiques the system of art production and dissemination. In the video the narrator reflects on whether an artist who works in a more humble approach in remote places can remain humble when there is a need to work with the art distribution system. As the 'artist' works on her humble project she is visited by the archetypal 'curator'?. The video is narrated by an authoritative male voiceover with a trustworthy English accent. The video is 6 minutes, 30 seconds long.
