Some might say I’m cannibalizing my own content value by showing you another, better (in some respects) video of the Martin Kippenberger exhibition. My video is here, by the way.
This video tour is by New York Magazine art critic Jerry Saltz. I knew something like this was in the works. When I was doing the a little video reconnaissance, I bumped into Saltz, a camera guy, and a MoMA employee. I followed part of their filming through the exhibition and really enjoyed listening to Saltz. Also, watching him stand next to the sculpture Martin, Into the Corner, You Should be Ashamed of Yourself was quite fun.
So in terms of video, let’s see how things stack up.
Non-shaky camera v. Some very wobbly bits
Clear sound levels v. Awesome soundtrack
Access to exhibition v. Difficulty getting images
Knowledge of artist v. Charmingly fresh perspective (?)
*Commenters who prefer my video will be sent a brownie.
Art, your video is more fun…
May I have my brownie now?
Art, Your’s is definitely better.How can I collect my brownie? Georgiajohn.
Yours is the best – no question.
But watching the two back-to-back, made for a nice complement.
You are adorable…
I lack the technical savy to post a picture of a brownie here.
So, all you intelligent commentors who preferred my video, this is a
*brownie*
it is brown, thick, choclately and almost gooey in the very center. The upper crust is firm, and occassionally your teeth crunch on some walnuts as you bite it (unless you don’t like walnuts, in which case don’t visualize them). You realize as you begin to devour the brownie that it is the most delicious one that you have ever eaten.
You are now filled with gratitude toward Art for giving you the most delicious, calorie-free brownie you have ever experienced.
