'Should Tracy Emin now reveal...

Post by Pstotto » Fri Sep 18, 2020 6:31 pm

... The fact that she is a total mediocrity in the face of genius, now that her role as an undercover police officer in the art world has been fulfilled?'

The above statement is an imaginary conjecture.

This imaginary conjecture is based on the unified media presentation of a media manufactured phenomenon.


If it were a philosophical debate about aesthetics i.e. a 'philosophy of art and cultural studies' creative seminar phish to set the debate going, would you argue for or against her next phase of her art being a further expression of mediocrity in the face of genius, joke artist 'now avin a larf'?

Some larf - the last time her bed creation sold it was for over two million quid.

She should make her own bed and lie in it.

From seeing the video of the installation of the piece in the gallery, she fluffs up the duvet and arranges it according to memory (perhaps) ... :-)

Cecil B. De Mille and Gregory Crewdson by comparison regarding the 'drama setting' paraphernalia, form a critical context regarding how one could fill an interior space-as-fantasy world contemplation-as art-of-theatre.

When you say in the face of genius who are you referring to?

You don't get to question the exam paper unless rhetorically for the basis of your thesis.

It's hard to answer a question when key pieces of information are missing. You ask us to compare her to the face of genius but without any idea who or what we are comparing it's like comparing apples with pears. Pointless.

Well, if that's your thesis, what is your object-recognition objection?

Identify that first.

You're missing the point. I'd love to provide a thesis but am being prevented due to sloppiness in the way the question is framed.
