An artwork to be reproduced just inside the entrance of any gallery in the world, using their own collections in a potentially ever-changing display.
Six works of art hang on the wall in two rows of three with writing on the wall above the top row, below the final row and in between the rows. (Or works and text are arranged in a way that suits the art being displayed). None of the pieces are labelled in the traditional way, but instead with just one word that represents the current attitude to that work.
The text at the top reads:
David: "Is it all just… fashion? Are there any absolutes??" Mira: "Sure! In here…[she points to her chest]" Ollie: "Just not out there." from The Sculptor (2015) by Scott McCloud, p. 204 panels 1-2.
The three works of art in the top row are labelled, from left to right: Anti-fashion, In-fashion and Out of fashion.
The text across the middle reads:
“God, it all seems… so shallow, though. Like it’s all just about celebrity. Not about the art at all.” The Sculptor (2015) by Scott McCloud, p.401, panel 7-8.
The three works of art in the bottom row are labelled, from left to right: Kitsch, Classic and Celebrity.
The text across the bottom reads:
“Art is beyond taste. Leave your prejudices behind when you want to be uplifted.” from Kitsch art: love it or loathe it? (2013) by Jonathan Jones, published in The Guardian.
