Keine Gesellschaft. Near the #Berlin Dom and Schloß, a quiet pair of empty chairs caught my eye.

INSIDE US @ TBA - 09 Aug feat. CONCEPTUAL, oyokai
A thread on a little #Conceptual #Art #History, with a touch of #Ambient music and #Geopolitics . In 1999 some artists set up a spoof #NATO propaganda operation called NATOarts (www.natoarts.com). It was all a bit tongue-in-cheek, using the language of euroatlantic security and NATO's institutional legitimacy to say something (what exactly?) about that moment at the end of history. It was a shiny, name-badgey, international trade-punk artistic exercise wrapped in a plausible story.
