"Border-Signs" - a Sympozion on New Art in Breitenbrunn, Austria. In 1976 the group moved to the West and later showed up in New York as "Squat Theatre" gaining world-fame with such productions as "Andy Warhol's Last Love", "Mr. "Neoist Farewell Performance" by Monty Cantsin, founder of the International Neoist Movement held 19th May, 1984 in a blockhouse-cellar and courtyard, Budapest. ..
I ventured to his industrial atelier so that we might discuss his latest excretions -- an album called Noise-Bible (which makes Einstuerzende Neubauten's last disc sound like The Dave Matthews Band in a romantic mood) and his latest short film Nineveh -- but suddenly things took an unexpected turn. is also the pioneer of Telepathic Communications, a crude but effective alternative to telephones and email in which a simple steel coat hanger affixed to your head will enable you to converse with the world for free. In an exclusive interview with eye, Monty allowed us to eavesdrop on his thoughts via HIDI (hanger instrument digital interface) technology to help boost his biggest membership drive yet. Anyone interested in joining is asked to show up at either Lee's Palace for John Oswald's Plunderpalooza festivities or the empty lot on Bathurst between Queen and Dundas on Oct. It's more interesting to do something with a Picasso or a Michael Jackson song than create something new.
The peak of historic Neoism was reached when an Art Strike was proclaimed by Karen Eliot in 1990. For three years no work of art was produced by Neoist anti-artists what eventually lead to the collapse of the art market in the early 90ies. Whereas Monty Cantsin is conceived as multiple Pop-Star, Karen Eliot can rather be described as multiple signature for any form of (anti-)art. If you want to take part in the Viennese Neoist Worldfair in June 1997 (opening June the 5th) please fill out this form and send it in (via e-mail or snail-mail) or give us a call. We guarantee the acceptance of every single entry as long as there is enough space left in Kunsthalle Exnergasse and time left in June 1997.
