Real Talk: Relational Aesthetics
The other day I was bro-ing at my man’s loft above the gallery space he leases- watching ‘Cougar Town’ when, as it often does, the topic of Relational Aesthetics came up. You know, ‘is it still relevant?’ ‘was it ever?’ ‘was Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster overrated?’ the basic stuff.
Oh what’s that? You’re Relational Art game isn’t tight? In the words of Diddy (in ‘Get Him to the Greek’) ‘Don’t be proud of your ignorance.’ Watch this and step your game up:
‘Maybe relational Aesthetics can turn that gallery into a river where a nigga shall receive his baptism and be cleansed…But first I’d have to find a dope ass wetsuit on Amazon before I got a baptism’
Word.
