Il mondo non è banale? ░ Il linguaggio conveniente del Sublime Prefetto

¨ Sutta  (vedico: s ū tra; letteralmente: filo * ) del linguaggio conveniente del Sublime Prefetto ** Mia Nonna dello Zen così ha udito: una volta dimorava il Sublime Prefetto presso la Basilica di Sant’Antonio, nel codice catastale di Padua. E il Sublime così parlò: “Quattro caratteristiche, o mio bhikkh ū *** , dirigente dell’area del decreto di espulsione e dell’accoglienza e dirigente anche dell’area degli enti locali e delle cartelle esattoriali e dei fuochi d’artificio fatti come Buddho vuole ogni qualvolta che ad esempio si dica “cazzo di Buddha” o anche “alla madosca” o “gaudiosissimo pelo”, deve avere il linguaggio conveniente, non sconveniente, irreprensibile, incensurabile dagli intercettatori; quali quattro?

Queer Thoughts presents Heretic, an exhibition of new works by Chloe Seibert.

In the video a car is driving and the headlights illuminate the only area of the scene where we can see something. In one of the clips a voice says, “I don’t know what this is” and we see Chloe in the area where the light is, and she’s holding something.
In the video, Chloe keeps running at whoever is filming and then they always put the car in reverse. 
In 2013, Chloe made a functional sculpture of a six foot tall standing guillotine that was built to chop homemade eclairs in half. Most of the artist’s efforts were spent perfecting the airiness of her choux pastry and the lightness of the crème pâtissière. The guillotine did work though, and it later hit me hard on the head when we were joking around with it (the blade luckily had been removed).

A similar sculpture of a garage door is featured in this exhibition. It is similar in that it is an object that operates functionally, periodically rolling up and down, although in this work, the utility of the action performed reveals no immediate value or use. The door itself is transparent, concealing nothing, and only partially separates the space. Like commedia masks, the door is a roughly hewn caricature of a common form, whose slavishness and willful self-debasement illuminate its only chance under the stars for happiness.
