埃森贝格：艺术必须美丽，青蛙对苍蝇说道(2018)

剧情简介

“Art is just a social pretext,” says Austrian artist Christian Eisenberger while showing the filmmaker Hercli Bundi his latest series of pictures which is based on porn film sequences. That’s part of the “big circus of humanity,” he says he told an outraged friend. 　　A look into Eisenberger’s studio shows a – to the beholder – hopelessly tangled pile of works in different stages. The carton figures he started with “were for many years just thrown away.” Today Eisenberger is glad when he can send a bunch of artworks off to his gallerist and make room in his studio. His oeuvre is estimated to comprise around 45,000 works. Eisenberger acknowledges the artworld with its galleries, fairs and museums with a shrug, but also with a certain talent for self-marketing. As long as he can continue, whether at the studio or in an enamel factory. “Do not put your hands into the machine while it is operating!” a yellowed sign on his workshop wall says. That probably goes for the artist, too.
