This freely distributed button democratizes art discourse while playfully suggesting the co-optation of critique through scripted marketing. Commissioned as a public art intervention by
Invisible Venue
and
Southern Exposure
, it was presented on the occasion of the
Warhol Initiative Convening
in San Francisco, a 2011 conference organized by the
Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts
. The text was originally presented as part of
a series of conference badge interventions
by Invisible Venue at the 2010 College Art Association Conference in Chicago.
