The Art Freaks

This exhibition has been on since July- and on my 'to see' list from around the same time.
Olaf Breuning has re-worked renowned artists' works in installations that hang from the ceiling of Palais de Tokyo museum.
Do not go with any pre-conceived notions of garnering some socio-political insight - go just to see, and maybe enjoy in the process. He is an artist who eschews the pretension that sometimes inhabits the art world. He simply makes art for the visual pleasure- and stresses that endlessly in this interview.

It was interesting, in a good way and also just plain bizarre - as art can be. Was I moved? More intrigued, if perhaps to read up more on what makes this artist tick.



The visual tour here or at
