Good times are symbolized by littering alcohol cans?

The idea that someone’d think someone’d littered like that in a museum tickles me a bit.

Art exists solely as it is interpreted by the observer.

In this case, the observer interrupted the art as trash.

I believe this kind of art should embrace the impermanence. The concept is more valuable than the object.

There was another story like this. The exhibit depicts an after party scene with champagne bottles and other party “trash” everywhere. It was placed in a room. The custodians thought there was a party earlier and promptly cleaned the room.

I mean, that makes it a pretty damn successful work.
