Cleaner throws out 10,000 euros art installation by Sala Murat

Ironic Destroyer actions against art. Yet emphasizes the funny side of art… and something to smile to (or cry over – depends on perspective)…

The cleaner unwittingly threw away works made of newspaper and cardboard which were part of the exhibition.

“It’s clear the cleaning person did not realise she had thrown away two works and their value. But this is all about the artists who have been able to better interpret the meaning of contemporary art, which is to interact with the environment’ City marketing commissioner Antonio Maria Vasile said.

It is not the first time artwork has been accidentally thrown away by a cleaner. Contemporary art is constantly under danger of being thrown away…

In 2001, a Damien Hirst installation at London’s Eyestorm Gallery consisting of a collection of beer bottles, coffee cups and overflowing ashtrays was cleared away.

Later, in 2004, a bag of paper and cardboard by German artist Gustav Metzger was also thrown out while on a display at Tate Britain.

1723: Statement: Art must be protected as apart of human heritage.

Art must be protected against the cynical censors

and irresponsible owners of the masterpieces

(Picasso Dream painting nightmare scenario)

and art fund cuts (Save The Arts)

the humanity must save the stars in the sky, the flowers under the sun, the fire in the hearts, as well as painfully sharp sins and repetitive patterns of our history documented in art…

Marc Chagall about Love

ChagallFlight

Over the town
Marc Chagall
Oil on canvas
1918
450 x 560 mm

A love story painted by Marc Chagall. That is how love really feels: flying… They fly. He holds Her but she offers the direction, he looks up and back, she looks down and forward. They are such a man and such a woman for each other in that. Is she concerned about the future, and the place, their home, and where they are going next? Is he concerned about the past, that formed him, the past that formed them both, does he understand that all?

And they fly together above Vitebsk or any other little town or a big city. The fly not because they want to have a better view, they fly because they fly.

But at the same time they do see. If they were standing on the ground: there at the fence, lonely but safe, warmly wrapped like that little person hardly visible on the left, they would have been as small, as cold and as lonely and they would have only seen the black fence and the white snow…

But they fly instead, fearless, careless, crazy but so lucky, so very lucky two people…
