Thoughts between Wednesday 11pm and Thursday 3am after seeing Carey Young‘s exhibition «Legal Fictions» at the Migros Museum:

I don‘t like Carey Young‘s exhibition «Legal Fictions» at the Migros Museum much.

I like some features of the works from an aesthetic point of view.

I don‘t like some features of the works from an artistic point of view.

I like the works she appropriates, refers to or got inspired by.

I don‘t like the way she appropriates said works for herself.

I like the subject matter of her artistic works.

I don‘t like her work «Declared Void II» being so prominent as soon as you enter the exhibition space.

I like «Missing Mass» the most out of all exhibited works.

I don‘t like the changes she made from «Declared Void» to «Declared Void II».

I like how the whole exhibition reminded me of conceptual art and Art & Language.

I don‘t like how the whole exhibition reminded me of conceptual art and Art & Language.

I like conceptual art and Art & Language.

I don‘t like the way she tries to get her point across in her works.

I like «Uncertain Contract» the least.

I don‘t like the sound of above mentioned work echoing through the whole exhibition.

I like being challenged visually but rarely acoustically.

I don‘t like the light situation in the exhibition space.

I like sexiness.

I don‘t like sexiness.

I like to be seriously not serious about it.

I don‘t like the layout of the space for this particular exhibition.

I like you, Migros — I still do.

I don‘t like visual nor intellectual dissatisfaction after seeing an exhibition.

I like art that goes beyond the artist where concept and idea stands above an artwork.

I don‘t like to reflect so much about exhibitions that leave little impression on me.

I like to eat pizza instead.
