artefacto 71


One thing is clear: The contemporary artist can do without their manual skills and give as much or even more importance to intellectual work than to the artistic object. So, what does an artist do? Artefacto 71 attempts to answer this question by examining the activity of a working-class artist like Catalan Martí Anson. To do this, we do away with the traditional artist interview or experts explaining the issues. Instead, we foster a peer-to-peer dialogue between the artist and the filmmaker.
