Boetti

"a glorious and philosophical form of idleness" 


I'm 99% sure that the above quote is attributable to Boetti, as I read it in the introduction to the catalogue for the Boetti show currently happening at Tate Modern..


It brings to mind something that my dad used to tell me...


"give the laziest man the hardest job and he'll find the easiest way to do it."


This probably speaks to the genetic laziness that runs in our genes, though that paints an unfair picture, my father is extremely hardworking.


Though they aren't the same thing both seem to speak to my approach to art making...


I want to do something with the Boetti quote... Nay, I will do something with it...
