Author Description

"& Leisure," 2007, is a compilation of luxury itineraries for artists, sponsored by a fictitious travel consultancy. The itineraries, which are priced between $3,000 and $5.5 million, are individually tapered towards the respective artist's work (thus Rikrit Tiravanija goes on a gastronomic tour and Andrea Fraser on a total body spa vacation). The project is meant to be wryan example of and comment on late conceptual art, in which the culture and leisure industries mergeas well as deadly serious: We sincerely hope that some quirky philanthropist will start a foundation that awards much needed dream vacations to overworked artists.
