a park for L.A.
kleine kunstgeschichte*
*short art(hi)story
..c the proposal Manrique just worked out..
this short (hi)story of art we told/tell, because we were
invited by Dagmar Reichart and Davide Colombo, who
curated the new agora, to show a park for L.A. in that
context (cittadellarte, Biella, 2002).
when we started a park for L.A., 1999 in Linz/A and
Las Aceñas/E, we wanted to prove/flop that it's possible
to transform and disburden an abandoned, bedraggled
land in the center of a small village into a public park -
owned by all the people of L.A.; just by producing,
presenting and selling orange-art. it worked/workes.
click the orange to see how Linz and L.A. were linked then.. (OK, Centrum für Gegenwartskunst - Linz,
21.May to 18. July 1999, invitation
