Artist Talk: Heath Bunting in conversation with Mihaela Varzari

Tuesday 15 May 2012, 6PM
Artist Heath Bunting will discuss his vision of the artist collectives in the 
90′s and their gradual or sudden progression towards a new possible way of 
active resistance to societal hierarchies. Perhaps best known for his 
performance BorderXing, 2007, Bunting illegally crossed a number of frontiers 
throughout Europe as an enquiry into the notion of borders within the current 
social landscape, which can give meaning to either external or internal senses 
of limitation. His latest work Status Project, 2011 deals with contemporary 
understandings of class systems within our contemporary society.
In her research, Varzari is interested in raising issues such as authorship and 
authenticity in the age of the commons, the versatile nature of collective work 
– often described as social rather than artistic – and the contemporary artist 
as the model of a new transnational citizen. The discussion will also aim to 
reveal the manners in which artists groups have emerged, articulated and 
presented themselves in the last 15 years in the European cultural context, 
paying close attention to the current financial and ideological crisis as it 
affects the relation between artistic individuality and group dynamics.
Heath Bunting was born a Buddhist in Wood Green, London, UK and is able to make 
himself laugh (currently, reduced to only smile). He is a co-founder of 
net.art, irational.org, and sport-art movements. His self taught and 
authentically independent work is direct and uncomplicated and has never been 
awarded a prize. He aspires to be a skillful member of the public and is 
producing an expert system for identity mutation.At 01:42 on 31/12/2011 at his 
home in Bristol, he invented web 3.0 and is offering it for sale for 100 
million dollars.
Mihaela Varzari is a London-based researcher in contemporary arts and art 
critic. She holds an MA in History of Art from Birkbeck College, University of 
London and was involved in the organisation of the Periferic 8 “Art as Gift” 
Biennial and has curated several participatory art projects in London.
