“Dit koop je niet bij de Expo, snap je.” Dit is Design Thinking by Doing Verhaal nummer 770/1.111

Nee dit koop je inderdaad niet bij de Expo. Dit werk hing in het museum voor moderne kunst in Arnhem. En er werd gevraagd wat mensen er van vonden, wat ze er in zagen en wat het waard was. Niet iedereen vond het werk, of de misschien de vragen even interessant. E.e.a mooi samengevat door onderstaande foto:

Als ik het kunstwerk zou zijn, zou ik hier vrezen voor mijn leven. De linker persoon lijkt op het punt het werk aan te vallen terwijl de rechter in het werk ziet dat de maker al zijn emoties in het schilderij heeft gestopt. Zo roept het werk lyrische proza en diepe woede en frustratie op. Op de vraag wat het werk waard is, variëren de prijzen van € 1.000 tot € 2.500.000. Een bezoeker zou het kopen voor € 2.500.000 als hij dat geld had. Als het meer zou zijn zou hij afhaken.

Het werk is van het Zwitserse duo Christian Rebecchi & Pablo Togni die al sinds 1996 samen werk maken. Hun werk is wereldwijd geëxposeerd en ze werden meermaals onderscheiden en wonnen vele prijzen:

Door een bizarre samenloop van omstandigheden kwam ik in het bezit van twee gesigneerde, in gelimiteerde oplage gedrukte posters van bovenstaand werk. Een houd ik natuurlijk zelf maar de andere is voor degene die mij weet te raken met de antwoorden op de vragen:

Wat gebeurt er in het schilderij?

Waar zie je dat aan?

Wat zou je nog meer kunnen ontdekken?

Het gras is nog steeds groen. De lucht weer grijs. Ik ga niks doen.

Fijn weekend.
