THE GRENADE ROOM | The Chair and the Maiden | Anton S. Kandinsky



SPARK THE REVOLUTION

ANTON S. KANDINSKY PRESENTS HIS GOLDEN GRENADE TO BE IN CONTENTION WITH THE SHOT THAT WAS HEARD AROUND THE WORLD. A SYMBOL OF THE WORLD'S GREED AND EXCESS, THE GOLDEN GRENADE EMBODIES ALL THE CONTEMPORARY DESIRES OF WEALTH AND INDIFFERENCE TO THE NEEDS OF FELLOW HUMANITY. IN WHAT WILL BECOME ONE OF THE MOST COMPELLING STATEMENTS OF THIS CENTURY AND CENTURIES TO COME, THIS ICONIC IMAGE AND ITS SUBSEQUENT DESTRUCTION WILL BE A CALL FOR REVOLUTIONARY CHANGE IN WHICH VALUES ARE FUNDAMENTALLY RESHUFFLED; DESTROYING, BOTH LITERALLY AND FIGURATIVELY, THE INDIFFERENCE TO THE HUMAN CONDITION. KANDINSKY HOPES TO REPLACE THE AGE OLD MANTRA OF GREED AND DESIRE WITH THE VALUE OF ART AND ARTISTIC ENDEAVORS; TO FINALLY PLACE ART IN ITS RIGHTFUL PLACE OF ADMIRATION AND SIGNIFICANCE. TO SIMPLY STATE THAT THROUGH ART AND ONLY ART CAN THERE BE A RESOLUTION TO ALL OF MANKIND'S WEARIES.

THE GOLDEN GRENADE WILL BE CONSTRUCTED OF PURE GOLD, THE ANTIQUITY OF WEALTH, AND EMBELLISHED WITH DIAMONDS. UPON ITS CONSTRUCTION AND COMPLETION OF ITS WORLD TOUR, THE GRENADE WILL BE MADE LIVE AND ITS DETONATION IN A REMOTE DESERT, RECORDED FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS TO COME.

YOUR SUPPORT IN THIS HISTORIC EVENT WILL BE THE SPARK OF THE REVOLUTION...
