Open call for instructions, blueprints for inclusion in second international SHI-TAY BIENNALE in Fukuoka Japan. From your instruction we create bootleg copies. Copying a painting / drawing with slight modifications (think about generic rip-off products with weird colors and mispellings), or creating a sculptural installation object from your blueprint. Your work will be created live by our team of counterfeiters at GRAF gallery.
We're looking at bootlegging as a loophole within capitalistic production processes & drawing from the Fluxus tradition of 'instructions' in the context of using technology and making artifacts. Our focus is on punk/DIY, postinternet, nu-sculpture, lowbrow/nobrow impossible objects, street art styles, ritual magick & dark fantasy...
PROCESS
1. You send us your image - sketch - instruction (plz be detailed) (possible mediums: installation, concrete performance, sculpture, painting, drawing, we are very open to work with nontraditional stuffs)
2. We protoype for your approval
3. Final object is created and exhibited
