Produced in collaboration with students at the San Francisco Art Institute (where the artist is an instructor in performance and video), Labat presents a satire of the "Art Student" as social specimen, as experienced through the eyes of the school's bewildered janitor, who states, "I feel like a thermometer here, checking and marking the temperature like a cultural weatherman." Through humor and self-parody, Labat presents a world of pretentious art kids and addresses the predicament of art-making in a postmodern age. If artists suffer alienation, what about the janitors of the world, whose labor is to clean up the debris of messy performance art pieces?
