New CSI Images back from the CCC/KQ? Labs!

Detecting Curation Detritus-Orange Fuzzy String/Yarn. From Metal Detection Performance at Curatorial Cult Club/Kwestion Quration?, Walker Art Center Open Field, Minneapolis, MN USA, 9/1/2010. Pete Driessen © 2010.

A new album of my CSI images from Curatorial Cult Club/Kwestion Quration? have been posted on my Facebook page.  Taken in studio, these artist cell phone images illustrate the hidden detritus collected with a metal detection device during my performative Detecting Curation event at the Walker Art Center Open Field commons on 9/1/2010.  Whether  small or large, metal or plastic, sticky or slippery, a partially eaten Wolfgang Puck hamburger or a lost silver peace sign earing/necklace hanger, the images reflect, reframe and represent the wide spectrum of artist, viewer, audience, participant, administrative, museological and curatorial activities that often go overlooked within the subterranean spatiality of the art center.  The participatory found objects and process based studio images both combine and become exhibitionary elements and alternative publication components. pete
