Found you thanks to a google search for selling one’s fine art. I’m a fine art photographer / visual artist who over the last 5 years have been pursuing my art.

Years before, I had a 9 week major exhibition of photography from a hospital for the criminally insane at the Baltimore Museum of Art. In 2012 I will be showing this work again at a Mannheim, Germany museum for 4 months and we are in talks with Steidl about a book publication to be released in conjunction with the exhibition.

Thank you for your article about the various high-end art online auction sites. I want to start selling my recent work which is not on my website. Also, I understand if you or your gallery or reps have not already sold your art at auction houses, it is difficult to make this happen?!

At robertmack.com there is a haiku video installation I did with the Oz actress / artist Radha Mitchell and artist Mauricio Saravia who unfortunately passed away. My new website will be going online in the next three months and it will then contain a more comprehensive presentation of my art work…

Thank you for any advice being accepted to the high-end art online auctions when one hasn’t yet done so.

Here are a few links to recent shows and I would love to come to Australia one day for an exhibition.

Cheers!

In Baradaran’s work, Mona Lisa comes to life, raising her hands to don a tricolor head covering. Frenchising Mona Lisa sheds light on the very processes of naturalization and resignification by utilizing the history of Mona Lisa as it has become an icon of the Louvre and the state of France, even though the portrait itself is that of an Italian woman, painted by an Italian artist.

Similarly, the cultures and practices of head coverings are as complex and particular as the periods and places in which they are worn. Bound up with the flux of time and space, their meanings are historical and continuously shifting. Currently in France, the hijab has become a lightning rod about “Frenchness,” a visual threat to the ideals of the secular state. Pursuant to the demands of demographic changes, politicians from the right and the left have been engaging in argument, castigating an interpretation of Islamic practice while religious underpinnings of Western secularism go unacknowledged and undisputed.

Augmented Reality presupposes significant conceptual shifts, as it expands our definitions of ownership and trespassing while triggering dialog about a new medium for interactive installations. Frenchising Mona Lisa raises questions about curatorial control of what is seen in a museum as the alternative (augmented) experience of the Mona Lisa interferes with da Vinci’s original work and injects itself into the Louvre’s presentation of the painting in situ in the Salle des États.

Beginning on January 27, 2011, Baradaran’s channel is viewable by downloading the application Junaio (www.Junaio.com) available for free on any Smartphone Appstore. In order to watch the Mona Lisa come to life, users must choose the channel Frenchising Mona Lisa, and point their smartphone camera at an image of the Mona Lisa, whether inside the Louvre or in front of any of its reproductions anywhere in the world.

At the same moment in New York, Baradaran will release the manifesto for FutARism, a movement that seeks to explore the experiential, conceptual and legal shifts suggested by the advent of AR within the modalities of contemporary art. For the remote opening of Frenchising Mona Lisa and live performance of FutARism, join us on January 27 from 5pm to 9pm at Benrimon Contemporary located at 514 West 24th Street, 2nd Floor, New York, NY 10011.

The Louvre did not participate in the development of Frenchising Mona Lisa, nor has it sanctioned or denounced the work, of which it was unaware at this writing.

Amir Baradaran is a New York-based visual and performance artist. Born in Tehran and raised in Montreal, his first sketches took root in his grandfather’s philosophy and the harmony of his mother’s poetry. Baradaran’s artistic practice is marked by a recurring exploration of national identity vis-a-vis the cross-section of race and gender. Recent work includes Transient (2010), a series of video installations in New York City taxis, and The Other Artist Is Present (2010), a guerrilla performance in four acts at The Museum of Modern Art. Baradaran’s piece Takeoff (2010) is part of the Augmented Reality exhibition WeARinMoMA (2010), permanently installed in The Museum of Modern Art.

This is Kate from Art Radar Asia. We are a news and trends site covering Asia. We do occasional market news but also interviews, news and features too.

Congratulations on and thanks for your site – we have been subscribing for over 2 years now.

The reason we are writing is that we are running a special offer which your readers may be interested in.. We were wondering if you would like to run it as a post on your site – we can provide everything you need to make it quick and easy. Here are the details. Perhaps in due course I can do the same for you.

However there is only 4 days to go so there is a time limit on the offer. though we could run a special extension of say a week for your readers if you think they would be interested.

Let me know what you think. And good to be in touch.
Kate
