My First Project Proposal: 2018-001 "Fleeting Moments"
[[/div]]

**Title:** //"Fleeting Moments"// by Marco Antuart

**Material Requirements:** 
* One bean and cheese burrito with extra cheese and sour cream, prepared with green food-grade thaumic-reactive powder dye to be consumed by me
* One stool for sitting

**Abstract:** As soon as the gallery opens, I will eat the supplied burrito at a leisurely pace, as to not upset my stomach too much, while sitting on the supplied stool. Once the gas buildup in my guts reaches climax, I will pass gas, which, utilizing the green food-grade thaumic-reactive powder dye, will form a visible cloud behind me. Said cloud will then transform into the word "ART" before dissipating. I will repeat this process for as many times as my gut allows.

**Intent:** With this piece, I seek to show how art, like farts, are both fleeting moments; ethereal experiences, here one second, then gone the next.

Whether or not by forcing one makes shit, however, will be left up to audience debate.

Project Proposal 2018-1221: "Suck my dick"
[[/div]]

**Title:** //"Suck my dick"//; or, //"Institutional critique takes the form of the temporary or non-transferable approaches of painting and sculpture, architectural alterations and interventions, and performative gestures and language intended to disrupt the otherwise clear operation of galleries and museums, and the professionals who manage them//"; or, "//Fuck you, conservative//"; or, "//I can't believe you idiots don't put a limit on how many titles I can give to this fucking bullshit proposal//"; or, "//No, seriously, suck my dick//"; or, "//The Shittening.//" by Valeria Amador.

**Material Requirements:** 
* A blank canvas
* Kerosene
* A lighter
* An ornate gold frame (already in my possession)
* Laxatives (already in my possession)
* The greasiest food you can find for me (must be provided 4 hours before the gallery opens)

**Abstract:** I'm going to take off my pants and I'm going to shit on the canvas. Then I'll set fire to the shit-covered canvas and sing the Macarena.

Because patrons of the arts are all idiots, this will be praised as a commentary on the state of something deeper than it really is, and I'll be showered with accolades.

Once the shit has burned off, I'll place what's left of the canvas in the gold frame and call it my masterpiece. Since it's in a golden frame, the latter cannot be denied. My burnt shit will be my masterpiece.

Bids for the purchase of this piece start at $50,000.

**Intent:** Go fuck yourselves, scumbags. This isn't nearly as disgusting as what Ruiz was allowed to do in his [[[https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/wowwee-go-kill-ursefl|last show.]]]

CURATOR CRUSHES CREATORS
[[/div]]
-----
[[<]]
[[div class="tillytext"]]
[[span class="firstcharacter"]]-T[[/span]]o say that Little Havana's art scene is recently undergoing a bit of a gentrification crisis would be an understatement -- the Foundation, UIU, and CMA continue to attempt to enter our home and influence us against our traditional way of life, something which the Curator of the Tourism District's Galleria has taken to crushing in his new Display, "The Madness Sets In Fast".

Viewers of the exhibit truly understand what it means to have these ideas, and get unique insights into the blind gentrification process themselves; not only do the guests believe that the proposal was their idea, they firmly believe that it is the //best// idea that has ever existed, and immediately begin to engage in the artistic method. In this way, we all become the aspiring auteurs, blinded by dream of being a part of something, unable to recognize the garbage we are parroting.
