View this post on Instagram ok here’s an art installation called “ivanka vacuuming”, where a woman, dressed as ivanka trump, vacuums crumbs tossed by visitors. visitors throughout the day will continuously make a mess on the lush pink carpet that she can never finish cleaning up. this performance piece by jennifer rubell is obviously intended to be provocative. it is “simultaneously a visual celebration of a contemporary feminine icon; a portrait of our own relationship to that figure; and a questioning of our complicity in her role-playing,” declares the website for CulturalDC, which is sponsoring the installation at the downtown flashpoint gallery...i get the artist message but i am not into the stepford housewife vibe. and my question is tho (and im sure other people do) , if ivanka often cleans up the mess that her father creates, does that make us (the visitors) donald trump?🙃 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #art #artinstallation #ivankatrump #artwork #perfromanceart #TheProvince #jenniferrubell A post shared by Vincent Law (@binzento) on Feb 12, 2019 at 5:37am PST
