Video piece “Dealing with art ends in death” is inspired
by “Obituaries” – work by Oskar Dawicki. On the other
hand it is an attempt to explore to what extent artistic
activities remain indeed beyond time... that is to say
timeless. Outline of an obituary, taken from Dawicki’s
work, is used as a visual layer while over thousand of
successive names cause the viewer to verify whether
those individuals are known from their works or not.
Whether dealing with art is able to protect the artists
from the evanescence at all...
