Abstract
This chapter is dedicated to Jason Rhoades’s SLOTO. The Secret Life of the
Onion (2003), a complex, multilayered, site-specific installation artwork
in the collection of the Van Abbemuseum. [Figure 20] It introduces
the problem of perpetuating a site-specific installation that includes
processes of growth and transformation, not only in content but also
in form. Museum professionals are often confronted with profound
questions in order to keep processual artworks alive and sometimes
need to make radical decisions when reinstalling the work in different
contexts than foreseen by the artist. Comparative examples are Dieter
Roth’s Garden Sculpture (1968–1996) and Jason Rhoades’s P.I.G. (Piece in
Ghent) (1994).
本章献给Jason Rhoades的SLOTO。《洋葱的秘密生活》(The Secret Life of The Onion, 2003)是范·阿贝博物馆收藏的一件复杂的、多层的、特定地点的装置艺术品。[图20]它引入了使特定地点的装置永久化的问题,包括成长和转变的过程,不仅在内容上,而且在形式上。博物馆专业人员经常面临着深刻的问题,为了保持过程艺术作品的活力,有时需要在不同的环境中重新安装作品时做出激进的决定,而不是艺术家的预期。比较的例子是Dieter Roth的花园雕塑(1968-1996)和Jason Rhoades的P.I.G. (Piece in Ghent)(1994)。
