Visual Art Currently Hanging

Christian Jankowski’s The Hunt (1992/1997), single-channel video, 1 minute 11 seconds
For this piece, the German artist ate only what he could shoot an arrow into at grocery stores. When I saw the video in Boston recently, a group of older women also happened to be watching it. One of them immediately said, with some concern, “What did he do for juice??”

so stupid
I bet he's uncut. Yummy.
So, is the arrow a litmus test for purchasability, or is it just his way of laying claim to stuff? What happens when he shoots watermelons in a barrel and nails like five of them?
It's a game!
Vegetables in Europe actually look like vegetables and not plastic. Amazing.
And he's hot.
This was done in a German film a while back. "Viktor Vogel - Commercial Man" was its American title. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0246514/
I liked the movie a lot. So I'm mad that this guy stole Rosa's idea.
nevermind. I just saw the date on the video. Viktor Vogel stole from this guy...
Didn't Homer do this with a toothpick?
