Real Crash- Looking at Capitalism and its Laws:
Artist Amir Baradaran in a trance at MOMA
The end cut of the Amir Baradaran trip is the deepest. This is where he hits Marina Abramovic in the existential solar plexus. See the video and you'll know. He hits her and the viewers of his little film with his Sufi chanting, and even his tears. Finally he fingerprints himself and leaves as a non-resident alien. Like the old Patti Smith song/poem, he's -- underground, on the borderline, up against the wall.
However, this is no offense against the performance artist Marina Abramovic at NY's MOMA, the Modern Art Museum. It seems it's easier to play against a work of art, than to start one from scratch.
