Gallery Girl's Wishlist Highlights Art Market Excess and Upcoming Exhibitions

Anastasia Klose's T-shirt, featuring the slogan 'L'Hausér, NYC, Zurich, London: Because you're Wirth it,' was available at Tolarno Galleries' Art Basel Hong Kong booth. Ragnar Kjartansson's performance piece Me and My Mother, where his mother spits in his face, is part of his exhibition at the New Museum. Christie's Post-War and Contemporary Art auctions in November generated $782,368,375 over two evenings, setting a record for contemporary art sales. Marina Abramović's 512 Hours will open at London's Serpentine Gallery, requiring visitors to relinquish personal items during the six-day weekly sessions. The Chicken Show at Roman Road in East End will serve fried chicken by chef Ellen Parr, accompanying an exhibition of internet-sourced images viewed by live chickens. Gallery Girl humorously suggests purchasing Manchester United Football Club for three-quarters of a billion dollars to promote her brand. She also recommends spy glasses from onlinespyshop.co.uk to covertly document Abramović's performance. The tone celebrates art world opulence, referencing events like Art Basel Hong Kong and the Serpentine Gallery's upcoming show.
