Vacuous Art

Update: 2021-06-29

Description

Recently an Italian artist sold an “immaterial sculpture” for about $18,000 and the Backporch dudes let the fun begin. Join them in a far-ranging discussion about this moment in art and education history. Did he sell nothing or a “vacuum”? Is this legit? What did the buyer get? The questions just keep coming, and perhaps the beginnings of some answers as well. Pull up a chair and have fun with us.
