ARTIST MERCHANDISING ART is the first series of international exhibitions to deal
with the issue of merchandising in contemporary art and its relevance for artists, art
and the art market. The exhibitions open simultaneously in Berlin and Los Angeles
and will later travel to Vienna, Paris and Hamburg. Primarily used for sales promotion,
merchandising has now become an integral part of commercial distribution and the
creation of an image. The fundamental difference between a merchandising and an
original brand product, is the merchandising products’ absence of actual user value
while at the same time a logo or the image is still delivered. How and where does
merchandising take place in contemporary art? We know Caravaggio-mousepads and
Andy Warhol-lighters, but is there merchandising in contemporary art outside of the
museum shop? Are the well known artist-editions of art magazines or art institutions
merchandising, in the way that they are a comparably cheap way to get your hands
on a certain image? Does the “publishing company” shop OTHER CRITERIA, which
was founded in 2005, fit the category? Does it make sense to transfer the category
into the realm of Fine Arts? Could a transferral enrich the discourse? Or has it been
part of the art context for a while and the borders have long been fluid? And if that
was the case, would it mean that every piece of art is a merchandise article
transporting the image of the brand product artist? ARTISTS MERCHANDISING ART
provides an insight into the wide range of creative approaches to artist
merchandising. The participating artists have been asked to hand in one or more
products that in their opinion fit the category. The works are meant to have been
specifically produced for merchandising purposes or deal with merchandising, use
merchandising as a creative genre or be pieces already related to commercial
distribution. The palette ranges from typical merchandising accessories (like knickknacks
or T-shirts) up to affordable editions. It could further include signed
catalogues, posters or flyers, CDs, DVDs, Vinyls, stickers, small ceramics, printed
everyday articles, cheap multiples, etc.
Organized by René Luckhardt and Judith Rohrmoser, in collaboration with Stefanie
Gattlen, Heike Kelter, Gustav Mechlenburg, Bettina Sellmann, Hans-Peter Thomas,
fluid archives, What The Shop, La Guillotine/Atelier Reflexe and 8. Salon.
