Using the power of narrative to make nonsense palatable, rationalized - here a press release more interestingly “askew” than most. Its akin Mullican’s hypnosis as excuse or Rhoades stoner-arcana as imbuing mechanic or Matthew Barney’s phallocentric symbologies as justification for megalomanic libidinal Dalism, going all the way back to Broodthaers who used his own self-narrative-mythologizing as a reflective axe to the institution; Finsel’s method-acting a sort of Andrea Fraser psychoanalytic performance, a less direct Pamela Rosenkranz pyschonautics short-circuiting the reading of staight-edged art intent, making the heart shaped penis butt impaled on a rod appear pertinently ordered despite being anything but, an excuse for something just slightly weirder than most.
