60 Wrd/Min Art Critic
By Lori Waxman. Afterword by Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev.
Are you an artist? Do you need a review? Operating from a small, single-room structure installed at Documenta 13, Chicago-based art historian and "60 wrd/min art critic" Lori Waxman offered free reviews to any artist who wanted one. A sign in the window announced: "Reviews are free of charge, and are written here on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays between the hours of 1 and 6 p.m. Lori Waxman will spend 25 minutes looking at submitted work and writing a 200-word review. Thoughtful responses are guaranteed. Completed reviews will be published in the Hessische/-Niedersächsische-Allgemeine (HNA) weekly, and will remain on view here throughout Documenta 13." This book collects together all 241 reviews written during the performance, and includes an afterword by the exhibition's artistic director, Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, who praises the project as "insanely democratic."
