Andrew Maxedon, “Fragile,” 2017I put a 99-cent plate from Goodwill in a gallery and gave out 50 cards offering $100 to anyone who smashed it and 50 offering $25 if they got a picture of the person doing it. The only people brave enough to go through with it were a group of three middle and high school students. Here are my favorite reactions of people before it broke. Most people didn’t believe me:Here’s me giving one of the students the money:And later, when people realized what had happened. The brothers who broke it are in the last picture:The shards will be on display until the end of the month at The Art Center - Highland Park in Highland Park, Illinois. -- source link
