The MoMA in NYC is about half hilarious, half genuinely good.
Joseph Beuys type shit infuriates me. |

I'd love it if he was doing it all as a joke, though. Like the myth/legend of Joseph Beuys thing and all his work was just a joke to fool idiots, but I doubt it, and we'll never know I suppose. |

i wouldn't say performance was a very popular discipline at edinburgh, thank god, but one tutor in particular used to froth at the thought of him. i'm almost 100% sure that if i'd ran about talking to a dead rabbit as part of my degree show, the result would have been-
FAIL
but having seen with my own eyes some of the utter crap that people got firsts for, there remains that sliver of uncertainty. _________________

I tend to agree about Beuys. But he may be like the Brian Eno of a certain period. Maybe you don't like HIS shit, but perhaps he inspired Modest Mouse or whomever. At that time we were at the end of a bunch of roads and we never did quite figure out where to go next. The answer of course is the same with music. EVERYWHERE! _________________ Yell Like Hell |

Another thing with Beuys is that you (I, I don't know, I don't want to apply my thoughts to y'all) need to remember that he was really the first to do that sort of shit, I mean you had DADA etc but he was a bit different, and I think if you want to appreciate his stuff you have to push out of your mind all the bollocks that followed it and was too closely "inspired" by it. I have the same problem with DADA as I do with Beuys, but find it easier to see DADA as being the first of that and can separate it a bit better from the stuff that followed it. |

DADA was a more anti-politics protest. Which gave it a lot of artistic flare and significance. It was a dig at war and goverment in general. I'm not really into this sort of art personally. I like Pollock, Picasso, Hundertwasser, Dahli, Van Vliet. The more expressive and surreal sides of art. But I think art such as Beuys etc, is a little pointless. |
