CONTEMPORANEITY [fr.
contemporaité]
Contemporaneity means essentially being in-time.
Thus there can be no archive, no museum, no documents and no monuments
of contemporaneity.
Contemporaneity is essentially living.
Or at least moving.
It is being in the sequel of events.
Producing contemporary art means producing art now, today, at this very
time.
To produce art for a stock of works, is not contemporaneity.
It is rather anticipating a rendez-vous of a future spectator in an
archive of yesterday.
Art is usually produced that way, continually evading the very moment
of contemporaneity.
At the same time, this is the moment in which the Emergency Artist
wants to work.
Thus the object for the Emergency Artist can be no archive or no museum.
The object for the Emergency Artist is to establish a room or a space
for exhibiting the works or pieces at the same day they are produced.
In this sense the Emergency Artist is a performing artist.
The Emergency Artist is performing his piece contemporary with it is
being exhibited and it is being viewed.
