“Let’s stick together, let’s exhibit together, write manifestos, let’s be a nuisance,

let’s protest against every art mafia and against the aesthetics of ... art for art’s sake ! “

[Enrico Baj, 1957]

“You stinking fucking cigar smoking bastards and you

scented fashionable cows who deal in works of art”.

[Gustav Metzger, 1965]

“We live in the fog of neo-formalism [...] artists content in proposing professionally packaged pieces [artworks] which look like art [...] if this is art, then fuck art and fuck the artists who make it”.

[Herzog Dellafiore, 2006]

There are so many artists making objects that look so much like art.

There are so many art institutions showing works that look so much like art.

Why not organise an event that looks so much like an art event?

Susak Expo 2006 is not an exhibition.

It is, however, a circumstance, a situation and an event entitled Extended Platforms: no plans, just a time and place.

What happens when you put in place a structure that has all the potentiality for art to be made but at the same time has no expectations and leaves all outcomes open?
