DARINA ALSTER
|
| You can say that I’m bisexual, perverse, that like to get high, and that I’m a bitch…yeah, write that down too!
During her performances, Darina Alster switches her sex, gives herself out and seeks her double. With her natural-born exhibitionism as well as her physical beauty as loyal allies, she beckons her audience into her privacy and further into her archetypal world where androgyny and… |

SUPERJAMBON’S KNOW - HOW
|
| Even before entering the location where Patrick Jambon performs, you can see him from far away, from the street; he’s in the window of the gallery racing cars on a computer attached to a home trainer that he pedals throughout the opening of his show.
Visible and exposed, approachable and inviting, Patrick Jambon utters statements at epicenters of public reception —be they in an art… |

| Three Young Women Venture to the Abandoned Small Pox Hospital on Roosevelt Island, a Former Welfare Colony Neighboring Manhattan.
In New York, walking into an office-tower— one in which you have a perfectly legitimate and professionally mandated appointment with a consenting host—can involve numerous permutations of the Checkpoint. Signing in, providing identification, allowing the… |

A CHARMING EXHIBITION, OR KASSEL OF 2007
|
| As a world exhibition of contemporary art, the documenta of Kassel has two great advantages, at least as compared with other periodically organized exhibitions of a similar scope and impact. First, a five-year period, which elapses before the next exhibition is held, provides enough time to catch one’s breath, to perform research and to think; and second, the attention of the audience,… |

ABOUT SQUIRTING MILK AND WHITE HANDBAGS: IMPRESSIONS OF DOCUMENTA
|
| As someone primarily interested in video art, writing about documenta seemed a difficult, even pointless task. For me, the pulse of any exhibition is determined by the flickering of screens and the moving projections of its videos. As such, while heading west (I am based in Berlin) to the small town of Kassel, I was worried, having read that at this year’s documenta 12 there was to be no… |

THE SICILIAN PAVILION IN VENICE 2007
|
| Sicily may very well be one of the most inspiring environments that this restless writer has ever set eyes upon. It isn’t immediately clear why contact and human communication in Sicily are carried out with such oldworld sophistication, it’s not an issue for the unique remnants of the class-defined society to be found in Palermo. To the sensitive observer, every encounter is a blast of … |

BLOODY ART IN VENITIAN CREAM; FROM THE DIARY OF NATURALIST
|
| This year, I was invited to Venice again to take part in the “Continental Breakfast,” an international forum for contemporary art curators. As the forum coincided with the opening of the Venice Biennale, I made a few changes to my speech and added the following introduction.
If I Had a Daughter
If I had an adult daughter who was about to choose a profession, I would tell her: become… |

IS THERE REALLY A MARKET?
|
| Who bought their works during the golden age of such artists now cannot find anyone interested in buying these works from them. Auctioneers show no interest at all; the former galleries no longer exist, have parted with the artists or refuse to buy “early works” of their artists back. So what’s left? Internet auctions? There is no room for really expensive art there, even if a piece of… |
