“Out you go, out with you.” The curators, the art critics and the whole art establishment don’t want $pot in because he doesn’t play by the rules, and he’s not acting like the other animals.
“We do not want you in the zoo,” they tell Spot the leopard. In fact, he once fearlessly told me that he “weighs his press by the pound.” In our story, he reveals that, deep down, he still wants to get into the zoo, where he can be exhibited with all the other animals.Īt this point, the zookeepers chime in. Spot the leopard continues, “I would like to live this way this is where I want to stay.” $pot always claimed that he didn’t care about museums and what other people thought of him. His wish will come true at London’s Tate Modern this coming May, though by now he’s so supersized and has produced so much art that much of it won’t be exhibited. $pot has never had a retrospective show in a museum, though for almost 20 years he’s been the most talked-about artist in the world. At the outset of the tale, Spot, the leopard, says to the two children, “I will go into the zoo, I want to see it yes I do.” Let’s take the zoo as a metaphor for the museum.
