Remixed Art

Thursday 15 September 2005

Artist Brock Enright has re-arranged Van Gogh’s bedroom.

Featuring as part of a special project for Black Book magazine, Enright’s digital montage is entitled ‘I just returned from a forest full of thieves’ and is billed as an ‘artist’s reinterpretation, with apologies to Vincent Van Gogh’. In it, the furniture of Van Gogh’s Room at Arles has been re-arranged as if after a wild party. Enright is more well known for his ‘designer kidnappings’ where he extracted thousands of pounds from ‘have it all’ manhattanites who wanted to experience ’safe fear’. He has an exhibition opening in London at the Vilma Gold gallery today.
