This is one super cool art exhibition entitled 'Leave on the walls a photographic trace of your fleeting visit' by Franco Vaccari that I would love to check out. It is unique because it directly involves the audiences by inviting them to take pictures of themselves in the photo booths placed inside the gallery and stick their photos on the walls. He was invited to restage his 1972 work at the recent Gwanju Art Biennale 2010.

'for the gwangju art biennale 2010, vaccari has been invited to re stage this work, which is a kind of image-generating machine that creates a visual history of its use and of the show itself, but which also relies entirely on the participation of the viewing public and their willingness to donate an image to the gallery walls. in this regard, the work can be seen as a precursor to the relational artworks of the 1990s, which focused on creating works that remained incomplete without the direct engagement of the viewer. within the context of contemporary culture, the work takes on a new set of associations in light of social networking and photo-sharing websites, where users voluntarily share their images with a wide audience on an almost daily basis-cultural development that would no doubt have been foreign to viewers in the early 1970s, but which is now a prominent aspect of our image-saturated media environment.'

Anyways, I will probably blog tomorrow. No promises though. Experiencing a major headache the whole day from my lack of sleep this two weeks. Gotta take me some panadols
(yes, this headache really is a killer so I'll back off from my anti-meds stance for now)
