Creative Access Description
A black and white portrait oriented image of a work of performance art. A performer, naked but for a lacy white dress and veil stands facing the camera. In his right hand he holds a bottle of paint, which he points downward and squeezes, shooting a stream of paint on to the floor. His left hand clutches the lacy garment to his chest. On the floor to the right side of the frame lay a pile of black robes, the performer's discarded costume. Above this pile a sketch like drawing of the artist Diego Rivera looms on the white gallery wall, a speech bubble extending from its mouth with word scrawled in paint reading 'I am such a great artist I have the biggest dick in the art world DIEGO'. Behind the performer, a low metal scaffolding stands in front of a few members of the audience.Description
