Keith Obadike's Blackness
Keith Obadike, like many others mocked Ebay with his sale of an unconventional product through the site, his blackness. I really like that his location is "Conceptual Landscape", in Hartford Conneticut.
It would at first seem like Obadike is just trolling, but once you read the benefits and warnings listed, then you can begin to see how he feels about the issue; that it can be more of a hinderance than a gift at times, and how the benefits and the warnings seem to contridict eachother.
I think that this performance piece, mostly carried out by Ebay, and bidders on the site is interesting, but do not think that I would necessarily call it art.
