BOTERO WITHOUT HIERARCHY
1994 I

I made this performance opposing a practice marred by its author that betrays the spark of creativity. That is why, by means of a protest action, I drew something on the floor in front of the piece of art on display. I drew a number that on the one hand invalidates the artistic value of such piece of art as this number shows its weight in kilograms. In doing so, I framed said artwork within the assets of the city as an object or thing. On the other hand, said number challenges the iconic autonomy of the so-called work of art, here questioned. Finally, I write down that beside the legitimate signature and form there is another one that acquires meaning.
