Alistair Gentry

    Tento britský umelec a spisovateľ sa venuje rozmanitej tvorbe, ktorá sa objavuje v rôznych médiách od digitálnych a rozhlasových po divadelné a výtvarné umenie. Jeho diela, často provokatívne a experimentálne, skúmajú hranice ľudskej skúsenosti a identity. S medzinárodným dosahom a prítomnosťou na významných umeleckých udalostiach, ako je Benátske bienále, autor neustále posúva hranice umeleckého vyjadrenia a ponúka čitateľom a divákom jedinečné a nekonvenčné pohľady.

Each story offers a unique lens on the human experience, blending the fantastical with the unsettling.

Why does everyone in the art world get paid, apart from the artists? Why do most art students spend years doing their MA, closely followed by them doing sweet FA? Who are the HoWiAs, and what the hell do they think they're doing? Artist and writer Alistair Gentry reveals all... it's career suicide!
