Trophy is a response to the continual history of artist's work being collected to complete and finish collections. If one goes to the Armory Show or Basel and cares about art in terms of idea, craft or integrity you will be disappointed. Instead work is traded like stock and artists talked about like award-winning Heifers. The context and soul of the ideas is ripped from the work like a zebra from the African plains when its put on the floor in a study in a home. This sign of wealth turns the conection to the actual wild Zebra's soul in the plains into a dusty flatened carcas on the floor, just like the art fairs do to the spirit of the idea in art. |
