Art-Strike (1990-1993)
| |||
and The Perpetuum Mobile
The Strike as such is an aesthetic-ethical operation on the deformed body of the reigning Myth. The Strike - by definition - is declared on the territory between Genesis 15 to 24. This obscure territory is the theo/logical link of the sweaty cause and deadly effect. The Gustav Metzger-Stewart Home proposition enlightened the social implications of this relation: - the Art-Strike clearly defined its position on the Market of the Myth.
The International Paralell Union of Telecommunications
(IPUT), (involved in the cultivation of newly-established dictionaries
of extra-mythological languages, practicing different forms of
Art-Strikes under the general title: The Subsistence Level Standard
Project 1984W) calls for an international and simultaneous event
in the frame of the Art-Strike (1990-1993): The general art-strike (may 1991) and the perpetuum mobile -
One could add to the already existing model:
(one can't help but define oneself between the extremities)
- a new element:
These models - and others - are applicable and applied already by art-strikers, artists, art theoreticiens, art-crtitics, art organizers, art-dealers and the public for self-definition and consequently - for the development of the Art-Strike-Dictionary which emerges inexorably in front of the awkward and corrupt Myth.
The participants should arrange the <General Art-Strike
(May 1991) and The Perpetuum Mobile> themselves and/or send
their proposal to one or two or all of these addresses before
the end of April 1991:
FRI-ART
INEXISTENT
RUINE
Each proposal will be displayed in May 1991 and/or
published by the organizers, and will be returned if requested.
