The Art Olympics or Fifteen Minutes of Fucked
It is apparent that the system of the art world is getting an overhaul regardless of pre-existing conditions, but motivated by economic downfall and a need for art that relates to the pandemic and its aftermath as well as other pertinent and pressing global issues. For true change to happen, there is a need to let different groups of artists from all economic and cultural backgrounds enter the system, upend it, and contribute in unique and influential ways, while remaining guardians of global traditional culture and of the traditions, which are yet to be created.

Please follow the links here for an introduction to the project. Letters Home Read more and visit the current exhibition here.
