Une performande d'art post-conceptuel, par Dave Hickey & The Art Guys. Ils ont traversé les Etats-Unis vêtus d'habits conçus par le designer Todd Oldham, sur lesquels ils avaient collé les auto-collants publicitaires de 56 compagnies américaines. Outre de très nombreuses photographies de cette hilarante épopée, cet ouvrage contient des textes et une interview qui élairent une entreprise de critique de notre société de consommation. The Art Guys sont Jack Massing et Michael Galbreth. Ils se sont rencontrés à l'université de Houston en 1983 et travaillent ensemble depuis. The Suits project was conceived in the fall of 1996 as an all-out, super public, totally social, transcontinental art event in which those impudent Pimpernels of post-conceptual performance art, The Art Guys, would appear at any and all events where people appear simply to make an appearance. in-4°.

Interesting Commentaries, Revealing About What Prominent Americans Thought Civilization Was (In 1930). However, The Beard Studies Omit Any Response From Any In The Great Masses Of The World Who Do Not Invent Or Manufacture, Nor Own Or Manage, The Technological Enterprises Which Are The Essence Of Technological Development, Which Is The Primary Concern Of These Respondents; Nor Has Any Study In The Succeeding 90 Years Attempted To Explore The Meaning Of Culture So Except In The Most Superficially Journalistic And Condescending Manner. But What Could Go Wrong? Aren't The Elites, After All, Elite? It Isn't Like Unprincipled Demagogues, Secure With All The Advantages Of Modern Technology, Would Incite Violence Amongst The Vast Majority, With Relatively Ever-Declining Options Ever-Declining Self-Esteem And Relatively Ever-Declining Standards Of Living. Why Bother Talking To Them To See Anything More Than Whether They Agree Or Not? And Who Will Ever Want To Read Ordinary People's Opinions When The Questions They're Asked Are Always Stupidly Closed-Ended And Never Followed Up By Why Etc.?
