SHIT HAPPENS

This article is about a conceptual art project, I would like to do as a three dimensional exhibit at a museum.
My concept for this project was inspired by Yoko Ono, the wife of the late John Lennon. I saw an interview where she was discussing her exhibit of conceptual art, where she arranged a room to look like a apartment, with all the furniture, and appliances are cut in half, and painted white. She had a working telephone as part of the exhibit, she would randomly call the phone, and talk to who ever would answer the phone..
My inspiration for writing this article,and project, is to voice my discontent, and dumb found understanding toward promoters in the art world who make famous artists who's work is so poor, that the only place it should be put on display, is the door of their own refrigerator. Where these same promoters turn a blind eye to some really talented artists, who's work is of high skill, and standard.
If these artists don't find away to promote their own work, out side the main stream art scene , the world will miss out on the great art , these artist have to offer.
Description of exhibit :

The room will be opened toward the viewer, it will have three wall= 2 side walls,
1 back wall. The wall will be painted the color smoky gray.

The floor will be tiled with a black and white checker pattern.

There will be six chairs,and tables, The chair will be positioned behind the table, facing the viewer. the six chair,table sets, will be line up across the room, each set will be spaced 2 ' from the next set.
The furniture will be white plastic patio furniture.

Each table will have a floral pattern plate, placed at the center of the table.
on the side of the plate there will be placed a fork and a knife.

On each plate there will be a large cow pie (cow shit ) use replica .
Each will be painted with a different design , that will be representative of the different style of art.

There will be a large clear glass cup, placed at the upper right hand corner of each table. Each cup will be holding art utensils :
Cup 1=pencils, Cup 2 = crayons , Cup 3 =color markers, Cup 4 = pastels ,
Cup 5 = paint brushes, cup 6 = air brush

On the back wall there will be three dimensional letters, made of transparent white plastic, they will light up.
The letters will spell, " Shit Happens ! "
