Context #NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianSenayBoztas "British artist Thomas J Price, Moments Contained - not a man who did something, a naked white sylph or someone's colonial hero but an ordinary-looking black woman. Three weeks after being unveiled, the bronze artwork is part of the school's curriculum on the Netherlands' history of colonialism and slavery. 'It's nice to see something other than a white man in a suit,' said Maada. 'I've never seen a bronze woman with normal clothes. It's nice to recognise something and it's good to put it in this place where everyone can see it.' Even before Moments Contained was unveiled, it provoked a storm in this port city where 55% of the population has migrant origins. Some opinions were far from welcoming. Microbiologist Rosanne Hertzberger in the NRC daily newspaper called it boring, tokenistic and insincere. 'Who knows, maybe this woman is a hero,' she wrote. 'Or maybe she's a bitch ... It doesn't matter. The group she belonged to was marginalised and now she is being overcompensated.' But at the station the reaction is quite different. Even more than Rotterdam's infamous Santa Claus statue - 'leprechaun buttplug', in common parlance - it is an attraction. A walking tour inspired by anti-slavery writer Anton de Kom starts at Moments Contained. A businessman pauses, takes a selfie. Tourists circle, making videos, and a young white man leans casually on the clenched fist in the woman's pocket." https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/jun/25/its-every-woman-its-us-rotterdam-falls-for-british-statue-of-ordinary-black-woman #IRLArtistThomasPrice #2023_MomentsContained https://www.sculptureinternationalrotterdam.nl/en/collection/moments-contained/ #PhenomnArtsSculptureBronze https://www.kunstgiesserei.ch/tags/artist/1099 #PowerControlChattelSlavery #NewspaperNLTabloidNRCHandelsbladRosanneHertzberger ^[Wikipedia] #TauntTokenism #TauntWokeInsincerity #IRLArtistPaulMcCarthy #2001_SantaClausCKALeprechaunButtplug ^[Wikipedia] #PhenomnSexualityAdultSexToysButtPlug #ToponymEuropeNetherlandsRotterdamEendrachtsplein ^[Wikipedia] #IRLHistoricalFigureAntonDeKom ^[Wikipedia] #PhenomnColonialism

I searched a clothes rack filled with skin-toned 'naked costumes' featuring all shapes and sizes of male and female genitalia, and chose a peach-color hermaphroditic garment, with teddy-bear fur, a male member between its legs and wide-set breasts. I pulled it on over my clothes. Then I walked into the excrement. There were four giant turds inside the 16,000 square feet of museum space. One mammoth piece of feces was reminiscent of a long, winding steel sculpture by Richard Serra. One was a brown spiral. Another resembled an enormous chocolate chip. Yet another featured intertwined layers with a gap in between that I could have crawled through, if I had been brave enough. All four sculptures of fecal matter sat on elegant Persian rugs, like welcome-home gifts left by a huge, vengeful dog." https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/07/arts/design/gelatin-excrement-sculptures.html #PhenomnArtsSculpture #OrgSyndicateArtistCollectiveGelitin #2018_VormFellowsAttitude https://www.gelitin.net/projects/Vorm-Fellows-Attitude/ #PhenomnArtsExhibition #PhenomnBodilyProcessesDefecationFaeces #ToponymEuropeNetherlandsRotterdam
