Landis Museum Residency

During a public one-day residency in the local annex of the Landis Museum exhibition, I researched the facilitation of art appropriation by institutions, the 2D image's privileging of the surface, and the 'hack appeal' of commercial and institutional spaces of the art world. This was done using the examples of newly developed and patented synograph technology and the pinterest-like, open-access licensing/image marketing of the Rijksmuseum collection via the Rijksstudio. Five variations of an artwork based on a downloaded Rijksstudio image were made into 250 A5 postcards, which were then annotated throughout the day with fragments of a talk on this research, delivered in the evening. These were then available to be taken away throughout the rest of the exhibition.
