homesession is proud to present seedbed: failed.version : spanish artist Javi Moreno will develop this project during the whole month of October through Cam4.com and Facebook, reaching its final point in a presentation at homesession at the end of the month.
In 1972, Vito Acconci performed an extremely private act in the Sonnabend Gallery (New York), with the title Seedbed (semillero). Hidden underneath a ramp, the artist spoke and masturbated while the audience walked "over him".
seedbed: failed.version takes as a starting point the transformation of the body into a spectacle through the web 2.0 and proposes to re-interpret Acconci's work, dealing with questions such as the pornographic domesticity, the artificial link established between the artist and the audience as well as the strategies of communication of the creative process.
The action has already started and you can begin to watch and participate to the work through CAM4 webpage. Each intervention on CAM4 will be announced through the events created on Facebook: presentation on October 28th  and October 29th .
We invite you to attend he end of the action, that will take place on October 28th and 29th at 8 pm at HOMESESSION, Barcelona, Spain.
