LAIF: a final project by Ratu Rizkitasari Saraswati
Ratu alias Sartom is my senior. She will be graduated this April. Sartom is the most ambitious person I know, she always give her all to her works. She is Seni Rupa’s Rachel Berry or Lisa Simpson. She is very galak cuy but I love her anyway.
Selamat Sartom, sampai jumpa lagi di dunia seni yang sesungguhnya.
i love you too, Sarah xoxo

I just can’t believe this charming guy is the director of the 55th Venice Biennale.

“Untitled” (Portrait of Ross in L.A.)1991
Multicolored candies, individually wrapped in cellophane
Ideal weight 175 lb; installed dimensions variable, approximately 92 x 92 x 92 cm (36 x 36 x 36 in.)
Felix Gonzalez-Torres produced work of uncompromising beauty and simplicity, transforming the everyday into profound meditations on love and loss. “Untitled” (Portrait of Ross in L.A.) is an allegorical representation of the artist’s partner, Ross Laycock, who died of an AIDS-related illness in 1991. The installation is comprised of 175 pounds of candy, corresponding to Ross’s ideal body weight. Viewers are encouraged to take a piece of candy, and the diminishing amount parallels Ross’s weight loss and suffering prior to his death. Gonzalez-Torres stipulated that the pile should be continuously replenished, thus metaphorically granting perpetual life.
The Armory’s Consulting Artistic Director Kristy Edmunds responded to the event of a thread with a question: “How to be within a poem and the recipient of its gift in one swing?”
Do you have an answer? Or is the beauty in the asking?
