Free Art!
Dr. JohnnyWow! again presents the experience of Kalopsia
(Kalopsia is the condition in which things appear more beautiful than they
really are.)
There will also be an on-site floor demonstration of the Creation-Destruction
Esthetic. There will also be an extension of the Creation-Destruction Esthetic
in the distribution of samples of Free Art.
You are on an Artwalk. Don’t go home without some Art!
Dr. JohnnyWow! Is giving away bits of Art, Free Samples from his vast accumulation. Most artists produce much more Art than they can sell. More Art than can be given away. After a while, friends and relatives shudder at the thought of more gifts of Art.
Independence Day
On July 4th we celebrate our Independence, and exercise a few of the freedoms our beneficent government has left to us. The Arts have become one of the last areas in the ‘Land of the Free’ in which a citizen can do whatever they damn well please. In the arts you can do whatever you want as long as it comes out of your own wallet. You can be just as creative as you can afford to be.
As artists we are free to repeat the same stylistic tropes over and over. Magic tricks of deception and illusion are practiced, honed, and presented to a bewilderingly silent and passive audience. That is true freedom - to be free of constraints and have no one give a damn. Silence is applause; indifference is encouragement. An artist becomes a living example of self-destruction as a method of gaining control over ones own destiny. As artists we aren’t here to satisfy your desires, we are here to create new desires.
