The Value of Art (Unruhige See). 2010
The artists purchased a painting at an auction house in Vienna for 450 Euro and subsequently transformed it into an interactive installation. Sensors installed within the painting measure the amount of time a viewer stands in front of it and, through this, estimate the amount of attention and appreciation the artwork receives. At the same time, an integrated printer produces a bill indicating the painting’s current price based on purchase and production costs and the continually increasing exhibition value.
