Creating art = empty

Duchamp Already in 1955 he claimed the repetition of a style decreed the devaluation of any artistic idea, creating the habit and becoming pure taste .


In an interview with him by the director of the New York Guggenehim, JJSweneey, who asks him about the creation of taste, Duchamp replied:


Exactly. The taste is a habit. Restart the same thing for a while, 'and it becomes a taste. If you stop your artistic production after creating something, it becomes a thing in itself and remains so. But if you repeat a certain number of times, it becomes taste.


Only a few years later another brilliant Italian artist's echoed:


I have always considered painting as a matter of moral obligation rather than a fact plastic, but now that, in the name of the vanguard, everyone started to make white paintings or not it at all, it is becoming highly immoral and should be even more hard to avoid confusion and misunderstandings.

(Piero Manzoni 1962 ca.)


We can no longer accept a system that makes a machine of contemporary art voted to the market, an art that no longer generates itself, but to lay it on thick reel welcoming his eternal reflection.


We affirm the 'uniqueness work of art. The reproductions are handled by technology and result in the reduction of transaction costs and the aura of the artist. Everything else is good, crafts and / or performance.
(Antonio Saccoccio 2008)

"The listener as a hobby can be adequately described only in connection with the media consisting of radio, cinema and television. In the typical psychological weakness of his ego: radio host of events, enthusiastically applauded the appearance of the light signals that invite him to this. Each object's criticism is no less alien to any intellectual commitment to it. Skeptical only in regard to what forces him to think with his head, he is ready to show solidarity with their as a customer, and is stubbornly convinced of the facade of the company, which shows grinning on the covers of magazines. This type of listener [...] adapts - in music as well as in everyday life - all forms of domination that does not affect too clear her standard consumer. "


In this context, although the significant connection of music to be systematically ignored, even listening to emotional comes to be anesthetized by the need of music as a palliative for distraction, for which the 'play loses its value and becomes a habit.
In fact, such behavior is configured for the submissive Music net.futurismo with ' hear presentations .
