Everyday Sfinx

"How much art can you take?"

...that's a relevant question over here in Sweden these days! There is a debate going on in the media concerning an art student who simulated mental illness as part of an art experiment and was commited to hospital after being violent!

The police and the psychiatric personell together with a majority of the public are raging over this kind of performances and claim it has notghing to do with art. While positive voices put forth that it's the function of art to challenge borderlines and that this "installation" concerned an interesting art project asking relevant questions about conditions within Swedish psychiatry.....

..so, yes how much art can you take....??
