About The Artwork

I was on ART BASEL 2013. Maybe it was a festival of irrelevance. Maybe there’s becoming less, that is worth to be viewed. But I reflected my work one more time. Isn’t it true, that I shout to the first art market: “Hey wait for me, please don’t ignore me”?! Therefore I ask myself: Eckhard you can’t test a business idea (Antideterministic Art), that is raising the audience switch off rates! But maybe there is an answer: Autodidacts have no artistic ambitions. They only use paintings as instruments of their thinking, preferring their innocence to the temptations of the decadence of the first art market. But it’s a hidden and shy (and moneyless) way. And maybe the direction of this way leads to nothing. We Autodidacts note that our favourite painting deals with a sandwich?! So I have to motivate myself: You have to do something totally wrong, because it is not intelligent, but it is great… Ich war auf der Art Basel 2013. Vielleicht war es ein Fest der Irrelevanz. Möglicherweise gibt es immer weniger, dass es Wert ist, betrachtet zu werden. Aber ich hatte Anlass meine Arbeiten zu reflektieren. Rufe ich nicht selbst in den 1. Kunstmarkt: „Hey, wartet auf mich, hört auf mich zu ignorieren?“. Also fragte ich mich: Eckhard, wie kann man eine Geschäftsidee verfolgen, die die Ausschaltquoten in die Höhe treibt? Ich antwortete: Autodidakten haben nun mal keinen Kunstanspruch. Sie setzen lediglich Bilder als Werkzeuge ihres Denkens ein, stets geneigt ihre Unschuld den Versuchungen der Dekadenz vorzuziehen – ein eher bescheidener Weg, das Wunder der Kunst auf den subjektiven Ursprung zurückzuführen. Aber wir Autodidakten bekommen viel Kritik und stellen schnell fest, dass unser Lieblingslied leider von einem Sandwich handelt. Da muss man sich natürlich motivieren. Als weitere Rechtfertigung versuchte ich mir also klar zu machen: Man muss den Mut haben etwas gründlich falsch zu machen, das ist doch wohl das Wichtigste im Leben, denn vielleicht ist es nicht klug, aber es ist wirklich geil. Und wer sollte das sonst machen, der ich mir erlaube, etwas vollkommen Überflüssiges, Sinnloses, nicht Zeitgemäßes ohne Zuspruch von Außen über Jahre zu tun….

Besuden is painting antideterministic art. For the first time at the beginning of the new century (2005) in London the question is raised, whether deterministic attributes of modern painting (new, authentic, antidecorative, scandalous) must be fundamentally reconsidered. In 2009 the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung published a report about the Transition Gallery in London, and their new appreciation of art under the heading: 'we need more dilettantes'. In this case the scandal is not intended to create a better saleability. Art musnt be no longer new, authentic, anti-decorative to be serious art. The anti-deterministic artist is allowed to paint old, anti-authentic, decorative but in a new dogmatical style. With every peace of art, corresponding with the above mentioned characteristics, the artists turns against the dictate of the ruling dogmatics. He is pursuing art policy by intentionally ignoring the quality requirements of the first art market and thus he regains absolute artistic freedom. www.eckhard-besuden.de
