I don't agree that his work is only about "amusement park spectacle" but hold a lot of value in a larger art world context. Think about what a show like this implicates for the future of art shows and how viewers see them and interact with them. When Lygia Clark first made her pieces that were meant to be touched and handled by the viewer, this idea was rejected b most critics and historians. Now look at the present with a show like Holler's turns an entire museum into an interaction and experience for the viewer. Maybe not all of the kinks have been worked out yet, but the prospect of this type of show is so exciting in the history of art, and I think you ignore this bigger context.Julia Monkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12376085102271320355noreply@blogger.com
