LICENSE©RIGHT
Real Art Kit "I_SELF AND HOW TO INSTALL" is a gift set. It comes as a special UICA-Edition. It is custom-made and arranged for UICA´s particular needs and tries to meet their specific demands.
This licence permits UICA (Urban Institute of Contemporary Arts) and its associates to install and disassemble "I_SELF AND HOW TO INSTALL" as often as wanted, in alternating variations and set-ups.
Please note:
This licence is valid until recalled.
Installing this work of art in other places than UICA is expressly prohibited.
Contrary to expectations, THE ARTIST IS NOT PRESENT, neither during the set-up nor the opening. The absence of the artist provides the basis of the work of art and is part of the whole conception. A lot of people are acting, interacting, making decisions, taking control, materializing the conception, finishing the work of art, taking the responsibility. Possibly the work of art will get out of control.
For this reason the artist decided to SHARE THE AUTHORSHIP and the copyrights of the UICA-Edition "I_SELF AND HOW TO INSTALL" with YOU. This includes all those who were interacting. You´re welcome to add your names under the artist´s name.
The artist herself will never see this work of art as an ORIGINAL. She knows it as an IDEA, a CONCEPT, a MODEL and probably as a REPRODUCTION. The CIRCUIT would be CLOSED if you´ll take PICTURES of this work of art and send it back to the CREATOR.
