The Un-Spectacle

posted by on February 20 at 10:20 AM

Under the heading “very discreet art opening,” I received this email from an unfamiliar address with no name attached:

“The History of Art” (the War Against Lebanon), by Marc Samuelsson. A photo study in natural couplings of lawn chairs taken over the course of Israels war against Lebanon. At: Residential Treatment Facility in downtown on a filing cabinet (due to confidentiality, cannot give address). Opening reception: Fri 3/2 (due to cofidentiality, no one can come) Through 08’ (due to confidentiality, cannot provide contact info)

I like to imagine this show, sitting there, just waiting for nobody.

Having spent some time in a Kibbutz several hundred yards from the Lebanese border a few years ago, I would like to point out to the Israeli born population that all the wars with its neighbours have been about territory not religion.
