In order to paraphrase Alfred, the poem ‘Locksley Hall’ by Lord Tennyson, in the summer of a young artist lightly changes to the coming Biennale of 2026 Venice. Open with the application for proposals for the Pavilion of the United States (aimed at “American values”) US State Department Until July 30, so much proven, conscientious and qualified artists to get the chance to show the very best that the nation has to offer!
… In addition to one ruthless Chammy Extreme Right Shit poster and software developer, looking for a new low cultural watermark in the city famous For his rising tides. Not satisfied to only contribute to the disintegration of democracy here at home, self -proclaimed ‘Dark Lord of the Tech Right’, malignant idiot, and monarchist Curtis Yarvin has just released a proposed ‘Biennale Coup van Venice‘On YouTube suggests that his next goal is to bring shame and to see it on the oldest recurring international art exhibition in the world.
“So do you also want to start a revolution in art?” These are the questions that touch the video preview of about one minute, asked to Yarvin by the Dutch Egyptian artist Tarik Sadouma, who cooperates in the (happy) hypothetical project. But don’t worry! Such as Yarvin reassure Vanity exhibition in one Long -term, loosened and apparently not -addressed interviewGiven the generous use of the R-word: “We are going to say that it is actually my idea, because I am an American.”
I go here on a limb and explain that the nationality of Sadouma is certain not Under the most important problems with the proposal. The project is framed in different ways by its makers such as’ Salon des Deplorables’, a ‘hardcore right-wing film’, and a kind of Maga cultural gang bang centered around the Titian painting ‘The rape of Europe(1559–1562), of which Yarvin Hilarious thinks the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum would borrow him. But while we count, neither Titian (Venetian), nor Damien Hirst (British), both that Yarvin is being controlled as a brilliant potential participants, his American citizenship!
Regarding the “coup” video itself, we must allow something that has previously regarded as impossible: it has produced a piece of media more poorly, unnecessary offensive and vacuous culture that pushes than the NFT cooperation of 2022 between Madonna and Pieple. With its fascist attitude, suggestion of militarized violence, laser light shows and ruthless ego buffering in the form of gigantic sculptures, it is like World War Z But with fascists instead of zombies (and also on the side of the zombies). Yarvin tries it Real difficult to look transgressive, but somehow also the now 30-year-old aesthetics of HistoryThe Michael Jackson World Tour -Trailer from 1995 who indicated almost identical motifs – albeit with the production of MJ with fewer laserzombies and burning pride flags. Moreover, that is all immature, meaningless offensive and seem to be a desire to be vaguely intimate to rape Europe – that (checking notes) hosting the installation.
In a sense it is perfect. And in another, more accurate way, place Curtis Yarvin to the sea on top of the Great Pacific Garbage PatchWherever he can become the Dark Tech Lord of the Seagulls or whatever, and perhaps the Biennale of the Inaugural Trash Island has found, consisting of beings that scream over hot waste – a company for which I will say that it is unique and deeply qualified.
