this thing you’re doing, it’s yours, you own it, it’s where you’re coming from
i thought about it and how most artists just obsessively search for the gimmick that will make them stand out of the mass, make them particular, famous. it seemed to me that that gimmick can also be your tombstone, what you’re reduced to, a shortcut which often will be used to define and simplify one’s work.
as an artist you can either try to play that game but it seems harder and harder to find a niche where you can rule and the niches are getting so small it becomes pointless and often ridiculous. or you can say that the world in not linear anymore, it’s fragmented and chaotic and as an artist you can try to reflect that.
that’s my choice. the ◜art history◞ is like an obituary with an educational twist, it’s consensual and witty and maybe it’s also a warning. as a wall piece it works on many levels, graphic, conceptual and even historical. the piece is evolutive, for each new series of limited editions a new name will be added, making each series unique in its way.
at some point it will stop. every list has a final entry.

Art History, Vuk Vidor
From the series The Newton Initiative (2012-2015) by Vuk Vidor.
“Newton is a privileged witness of our World, our societies, our lives, our ways. His perspective is unique. The man from the stars becomes an oracle, caught between the human maze and his galactic longings, the above and the below, the human and the alien, a permanent visitor of our complexities, paradoxes and insanities, big or small. Newton is our mirror”.
