Regarding to my thesis project, I'm revising a paper about Fountain 2006 project I did two falls ago. One of my basic art concept is that an artist only designs a frame of an artwork and then random people spontaneously participate in the frame and finally produce their own outcomes. For the thesis project, I'm designing a system of artistic expression for physically challenged students to allow them to play with.
Here is an introduction paragraph of the paper of Fountain 2006 project.
Introduction
Artists experience the pleasure of creation as well as the agony of brainstorming, conceptualizing, realizing and constructing an artwork. In this paper, how new forms of artwork that enable future audiences or random people to experience similar feelings is explored. No more than several decades ago, artist and audience were strictly separated. Artists made artworks and after that audience saw them in galleries, gardens or open spaces in cities, even though in the case of recent interactive art forms, the audience can just react and enjoy the result of artworks. In order to provide the pleasure of creating artwork, there is a new art movement in which artist only makes a frame or instructions of how-to participate in it, and then anonymous people who are interested in the artwork can actively get involved in it and share the feelings which were exclusively possessed by artist before.
If anyone interested in the paper, you can see the draft of it here. Any comments or suggestions are really welcomed.
