The Code is Art

Posted by Joe Ferrari in Got Things Done - comments are closed digg this add to delicious

What: The Code of Art
Where: Venice, Italy
When: August 2007 during the 52° Biennale of Art

What is art? To answer the question we decided to go to Venice, the most artistic city in the world, during the 52° Biennale of Art, one of the most important art exhibition in the world.

Our idea is quite simple. Art represented at the 52° Biennale of Venice, is not art at all. All the artists exposed incomplete work (intentionaly or not). We went to Venice to complete their work.

What is missing in our opinion of the exposed work at Biennale? The code (meaning) of universal interpretation: "The Art Code".

So we wrote the code and brought it with us to the Biennale of Venice to show it (like a flag) to the entire world!

"Code".is_a?(String).to_a<<"RT"

    Man you don't even know how long I've waited for this since disabling my own Movable Type widget (that doesn't work since Haloscan bypasses that code). THANK YOU!
