ART-ON-STOCK [fr. reserve de l’art]
 
Art-on-stock is the most prohibited for an emergency artist.
Artists usually produces works for exhibitions
and occasionally sales by having a already made stock of works.
This constitutes the Art-on-Stock which awaits a rendez-vous
with a spectator
through an exhibition.
Within the work of art is inherited a fundamental delay
(or an disinterested apathy within the work).
This delay serves as fond for the intended interested pathos
in the meeting of the spectators’ observations,
and the unexpressed intention in the work of art.
Contrary to the usual production, exhibition and perception of art works,
the Emergency Artist does not produce works
on basis of art-on-stock.
Instead, the Emergency Artist produces works of today
for the spectator of today.
First then, at tomorrow, does the works of art go into a stock
in the form of an archive or museum of delayed art.
This stock is a kind of demi-stock of art.
Emergency art is not produced to for any Delay Museum.
Emergency art is not produced for a demi-stock.
If one exhibits art on a art-on-stock basis,the result will inevitably
be a demi-stock.
A demi-stock is a permanent exhibition.
A demi-stock is hung art.
Most contemporary art museums are demi-stocks.
They are insulting the concept of contemporaneity.
Only emergency art is truly contemporary.
