>(presspreview: tuesday 20th of june 2000 at 1100h in the
>morning;official opening speech at 20:30 h the same day) the class
>suggested to ask the curator(Kasper König) two questions, before
>starting with the inspection of the art works, question one dealt with
>the political situation in Austria in connection with the final
>exhibition, the question was if there was any concept or even a focus on
>
>the political status quo in austria...question number two asked the
>curator, what he personally thinks about that he has to look at more
>than 300 artworks in a two and a half days period of time(!), and then
>has to decide in an objective and distanced way, whether the art work is
>
>"good" or "bad"...
>it seemed that these two questions had been enough for him, he only said
>
>"..ich halte ihre Fragen für absurd" stood up and left the class with
>the words "..wenn ihr wollt dass ich kucken soll, dann holt ich rein,
>ich habe keine lust auf solche sachen". the situation escalated, a nice
>discussion with co-curator Martin Fritz and public relation women
>Jessica Beer followed. What the curator didn´t know was that he had been
>
>taped all the time by two hidden camerasin class. what came out is a
>documentary parody of the day a person called Kasper König entered the
>scene.
