PERFORMANCE: WHAT IS ART?
@ Opening Night of Dr. Kristian Stuhl’s Heaven & Hell (German) Kris Kind & KAMIKATSE present: DR KRISTIAN STUHL Heaven & Hell, Light Room Concept @ Cuntra LA KUNSTHURE March 13 2015
Shermin Voshmgir aka KAMIKATSE channels Dr. Kristian Stuhl, one of many alter egos of Kris Kris Kind, during the opening night of Dr. Kristian Stuhl’s Heaven & Hell exhibition in Cuntra LA KUNSTHURE. The theme of the panel discussion was the Question “WHAT IS ART”.
During the panel, Dr. Kristian Stuhl (she/he/whatever) makes the statement that art is a just a commodity, the price of which is simply determined by market forces, which very much enrages one of the other panelists. The man, clearly provoked by the statements, leaves the panel mid discussion trampling & shouting (see partial video of the event below). He also also made a write up on that even from his own perspective.
ABOUT DR. KRISTIAN STUHL
Dr. Kristian Stuhl is an alter ego of Kris Kind. He studied at the world’s most prestigious universities, graduating summa cum laude from each of them. He obtained his doctorate at the age of eight months, and his first distinction was the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences in 1969—at the tender age of twelve months. He is not only the CEO and Founder of Goldman Sachs, but also New York City altruist, philanthropist, certified do-gooder, co-founder of God, and widely acknowledged as the best banker in the world.
The doctoral economist and self-appointed emissary of the “Chicago School,” Dr. Kristian Stuhl articulates—with almost aggressive precision—the economic and socio-economic entanglements between markets and human beings.
With “Das Klo spült alles fort” (The toilet flushes everything away), the world-renowned economist and serial recipient of the Nobel Prize in Economics unveils a clandestine pathway into a previously undiscovered parallel universe of economic thought, where, through minimalist children’s drawings, he finally reveals how the world actually works.
His analyses land with the precision of sniper fire over the rooftops of Sodom and Gomorrah. In the financial arena, he competes exclusively in the super-heavyweight division, and his matches invariably end in a knockout—or the opponent’s voluntary exit from existence.
HIS QUOTES
Democracy means that when the majority is poor and the minority is rich, it is good that the poorest become poorer and the richest become rich. Dr. Kristian Stuhl, 2013
The fucker fucks because he must fuck. The fucked is fucked because he is fucked. Dr. Kristian Stuhl, 2008
In the past, I used to laugh myself—today, I outsource laughter. Dr. Kristian Stuhl, 2011
HIS PHILOSOPHY
Banks give the people the money they printed themselves so that the people can give it back to the banks, so that it can be returned to the people, so that it can be returned to the banks, so that it can be returned to the people, so that it can be returned to the banks, so that it can be returned to the banks again, so that it can be returned to the people again, so that it can be returned to the banks again, so that it can be returned to the people, so that it can be returned to the banks, so that it can be returned to the banks again, so that it can be returned to the people again, so that it can be returned to the banks, so that it can be returned to the people, so that it can be returned to the banks, so that it can be returned to the banks again, so that it can be returned to the people again, so that it can be returned to the banks, so that it can be returned to the people, so that it can be returned to the banks. Banks receive vast amounts of interest for the money they lend. The people pay vast amounts of interest for the money they borrow. The money that originally belonged to the people now belongs to the banks—because the banks now own the people.
