BEAUBOURG ! htttp://www.fredforest.org/proces By sueing the Centre National d'Art et de Culture Georges Pompidou, the French artist Fred Forest wanted a trial for an example. To have been dismissed by the Conseil d'Etat doesn�t matter, as the aim was to denounce the lack of clearness of both Beaubourg and the Institutions as far as trading of Modern Art is concerned, to denounce them for not following the contents of the 1978 law about clearness of public accounts. By refusing to give these informations, they are causing the problem of the opacity of the public power, and they are leading to fall apart, and they deprive citizens of their legitimate right of controlling the use of their money, that is the public money. It is a trial for the citizens, with symbolic signifiance, as the involved artist is not defending his own interest. _____________________________________________________________________________ Such a situation is not honourable for us, with regards to our foreign neighbours. That�s the reason why I, as both an artist and a citizen, solemnly appeal to the socialist minister who is currently on duty for deciding arrangements as soon as possible to make up for that serious attack on Democracy. _____________________________________________________________________________ This work, the complete issue of which you may fully examine for free on this site, tells the assault course, the judicial events and the critical point of view that the artist is exposing with invigorating eloquence and humour about the official circles of the contemporary art. _____________________________________________ #<[email protected]> est une liste francophone de politique, art et culture lies au Net; annonces et filtrage collectif de textes. #Cette liste est moderee, pas d'utilisation commerciale sans permission. #Archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: [email protected] #Desabonnements http://ada.eu.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-fr #Contact humain <[email protected]>
