ART IS BEAUTIFUL! was a leaflet released in occasion of the Old Boys Networking Workshop, part of the programme "suck my code. Performing cyberfeminism" curated in course of the 8th International Performance Conference "networking / meeting", Frankfurt am Main, 13.05.- 16.05.1999. The conference took place in the former "Kasino" of the I.G. Farben-Haus ("Poelzig-Bau"), at that time no longer habited by the U.S. Forces and undergoing renovation before the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University started to move in.
Rather than to Karl Valentin's famous sentence, the title may be dedicated to Marina Abramovic' performance "Art must be beautiful… Artists must be beautiful".
While formatted like a questionnaire, the leaflet obviously asked not for being returned. So it maybe kept and/or spread otherwise.
