Omissive Art
a=tF²
by Igor Štromajer
1. Statement:
Omissive Art (Unterlassungskunst) is an active creative process of being passive. The most radical artistic action an artist can do today, is the one he/she does not do. Therefore, my basic mission is not to do art. That is, to do art, by not doing it. The only artistic value of my art is the absence of art. Therefore I call: Make love, not art!
2. Equation:
a=tF²
To find the art, you multiply the time by the square of the force.
3. Related Quotations:
“I don’t want it to be essentially the same – I want it to be exactly the same. Because the more you look at the same exact thing, the more the meaning goes away, and the better and emptier you feel.” Andy Warhol
“I have nothing to say and I’m saying it. The highest purpose is to have no purpose at all.” John Cage
“I have no special message. I wish I did. It would be great if I had one.” Andy Warhol

Tuesday, 19 March 2013, 19:00-21:00

For one week, artists from around the world have been testing the new REMOTE WJ-S MIXER. They have been taking over our computers in Paris. Join us for a DEMO to discover this new project, projected on the three windows of the Gallery des Ecluses in Paris.
The REMOTE WJ-S MIXER is a virtual platform, developed by James Hudson, running as a cloud service, allowing an international online community of artists to control screens at a distance, and create web performances which are projected into the public space.

Surface Tension Supplement No. 6
Unsitely Aesthetics: Uncertain Practices in Contemporary Art
Edited and with text by Maria Miranda.
Unsitely Aesthetics seeks to address the unconventional ways in which contemporary art is made and engaged with across the vastly expanded networks of new media culture, arguing–counterintuitively–that network culture not only embodies its own version of “situatedness” but can also lead to the creation of a more democratic art, with the Internet acting as a far broader public space than the traditional site-specificity of old, a space in which artists can encounter and perhaps even engender new publics for their work. The book aims to theorize current dynamics in media and sound art practice, and includes interviews and conversations with Barbara Campbell, Linda Carroli, Hugh Davies, Bec Dean, Renate Ferro, John Craig Freeman, Jo-Anne Green, Teri Hoskin, Lucas Ihlein, Yao Jui-Chung, kanarinka (a.k.a. Catherine D’Ignazio), Scott Kildall, Deborah Kelly, Natalie Loveless, Michael Takeo Magruder, Timothy Conway Murray, Norie Neumark, Victoria Scott, Brooke Singer, Igor Štromajer, Helen Thorington and Darren Tofts.
