Loïc Connanski, contemporary art
Connanski Loic is a disturbing coming from the universe the tee
unscrambled is by a technique of self-filming close to the work of Nelson Sullivan (the father of this technique died in New York in 1989) he speaks. OEU
tinue to Connanski elaborated in a questioning of all aspects of the fields of art: the making of the film at the opening of the exhibition, through the collector and the Commissioner, Loïc Connanski rule proposes dismantling of all codes. It operates in the manner of a reporter in galleries or museums
to make fake interviews that are him the opportunity to ridicule the protagonists sought.
Connanski practice diversion art references such as Guy Debord or Lautreamont, it turns a farcical situation that uncultured would naively the question of the definition of a work of art, to try to find the manual for becoming an artist. Loïc work is based on an aesthetic that claims of idiocy and assumed as such, close to Mc Carthy or Vito Acconci, the implication of his work may be related to Adorno's theory that defines art as a subversive force. Videos of e Loïc Connanski illustrate perfectly the words of the author about what art is summed up: "What is new is not that art is a commodity, but that Today, it is recognized as such deliberately " [1] and raise the question of the possibility of an art transgression detached from the notion of the sublime and its economic realities. Loïc Connanski mocks but this will of failures and derision is also a possibility to fight against the arrogance of intellectual superiority displayed by the medium of art. The idiocy is offered as a possible reading of reality which can enunciate truths and show a different way, the idiocy is then a power of creation, it opens new fields of experience. The aesthetics of infamy is not free and in videos Loïc, it is performance, the work of Loïc is based on the word, the reply, because the self-filming are recordings of improvisations by the artist. Poetry emerges in the work of Loïc divided by this capacity with the right word, cynicism with great force and binding as a method of dialogue.
Connanski Loïc is a postmodern artist, irony and quotation are the basic principles of postmodernity, the erasure of the hierarchy between high culture and popular, the lack of aesthetic consideration or composition, will refer to this and close to home are also postmodern elements. Consequently the work of Connanski has little visual reality and the work emerges through a distancing and a method that is not just a television writing, but surpasses the form to be established forever in de-definition of art and artist to borrow the title of a book by Harold Rosenberg, in which he opposes to Art, "the political event as a higher form of creation" [2] . A work that allows activist desecrate art and in this sense the opposite of Jean-Marie Schaeffer, Loïc is "both the priest of the cult and the anthropologist who tries to understand" [3] .
