Pay-per-installation offers are a rare thing these days. We’ve carefully collected the best of them and returned to the interview genre in our weekly articles. Meet a contemporary artist and installation master with a story about installations.
Our dialogue with the contemporary artist took place, of course, in an art gallery. The art gallery, of course, was located in the old factory building, and the artist declined to give his name, because personality isn’t important in art, only what the artist can contribute to it, and blah-blah-blah.
We explore the first room, completely empty except for a mound of sand in the center. Naturally, the mound of sand signifies the transience of art, its fragility and impermanence. We’re tempted to ask whether contemporary artists can come up with anything more original than obvious metaphors, but instead, we’re asking about installation offers. We value your time, so we’ll summarize the artist’s answers, as each one was as long as a university lecture, half-consisting of sighs, eye rolls, and pensive touches to one’s face. The gist of the answer is this: installations used to be more common in spa offers, but in today’s digital world, any act more complex than a phone tap is considered heroic, and people are no longer prepared for such sacrifices.
The next room is a perfect copy of the first, the same emptiness and a mound of sand in the middle, but now a flower grows within the mound of sand. A strong wave of existential melancholy overwhelms us, but we stoically listen to the explanation that this is a metaphor for contemporary art. Of course, what else could it be? And we ask about pay-per-installation offers. Again, a lengthy discussion ensues about how today’s advertisers have become much more demanding of traffic and how motivated traffic has lost its value in these turbulent times. Before we have time to marvel at the inadequacy of this statement, our interlocutor’s monologue suddenly devolves into a sermon on dubious leftist ideas. Everything falls into place.
The third hall is overflowing with sand, which evokes a cry of despair from us, for even a baby can see that it’s a metaphor for contemporary art, which has filled the media space. Our interlocutor seems to have exhausted his limit of thoughtful head nods for the day, but we continue to ask him about paid offers out of pure principle. This time, the conversation turns to limits, internal and external boundaries, which are equally important for paid installation offers and for contemporary artists.
While our lecturer continues speaking, we quietly leave the exhibition, which, of course, he doesn’t notice. It’s sunny outside, and there’s sand, a metaphor for nothing until it’s dragged into a contemporary art gallery.
