KVT – Con vật của năm tại L’Espace

Dear KVT!
Please don’t mixed up the work by Tran Duc Quy with Wim Delvoye when you mentioned on image of “Running Ducks”.

When I was a wee child my favorite teacher read the class the wonderful stories about Dr Doolittle by Hugh Lofting and we laughed out loud and were full of the joy that a good story and a good story teller can impart.

Of course Dr Dolittle has been properly discredited due to colonial and racist overtones to consider reading aloud to wee bairnsand the movie about the book was too awful for anyone who had devoured and laughed themselves silly over the actual text.

But all that aside, If I was still that 8 year old in Mrs Mark’s class in Aberdeen, so long ago, the animal at L’Espace would perfectly fit into Dr Dolittle’s menagerie of talking animal friends and would probably accompany him home from Vietnam to Puddlby-on-the-Marsh

Thanks@Nguyễn Mạnh Hùng,

…well…now, this makes sense… !

@ Hamish..
… the sentiment of it all (…which I am partial to, too)… that is… well,… there goes the parallel between what you say and the adventures of Tintin!

Hi Anh Hung

My face is red. I am KVT’s retriever of net images when needed as KVT is a bit of a luddite in this area. KVT said ducks and I retrieved ducks but the wrong ducks. If KVT finds out about my stupidity I’ll probably be beaten for a whole minute with a duck feather and told to stick my head up one of Wim’s duck’s orrifices. But more probably be given a plane ticket to the Museum of Old and New Art in Tasmania to be dumped on by a Delvoye Cloaca. See http://johnmcdonald.net.au/2012/wim-delvoye/ . Anyway, I’ll try to retrieve a different image and get the Grapevine people to fix it up for me before KVT is any the wiser. Lucky for me that KVT rarely checks the opinion bits once they are out in the public domain.

Thanks again for picking up on my stupidity in the realms of art images and thanks for the excellent link you provided.

Yours
Goldie

@ anh Hùng & Goldie:

The picture is replaced now. Thanks anh Hùng for pointing out the confusion and thanks Goldie for your quick action! ;-)
