{"product_id":"52728-cally-spooner","title":"Cally Spooner","description":"\u003cp\u003eA tear, engineered in 1856 by Rodolphe\u0026mdash;the adulterous lover of Flaubert\u0026rsquo;s Madame Bovary\u0026mdash;is dripped onto a breakup letter and sent to the heroine via messenger. \u0026ldquo;There ought to have been some tears on this; but I can\u0026rsquo;t cry; it isn\u0026rsquo;t my fault,\u0026rdquo; he says, but not to her. Then, having ’lled a drinking glass with water, Rodolphe dips his ’nger and lets a big drop fall onto the paper, leaving a pale stain on the ink. Cally Spooner\u0026rsquo;s monograph documents a large eco-system of over 40 works which takes the incident of this false tear as a lynch pin, to re—ect on the outsourcing, hijacking, erosion, decay, or destruction of personal, subjective utterance, in a 21st century hyper connected and ’- nancialized climate. For the monograph, Spooner describes each work in an active, present-tense voice, intercut with diagrams, drawings, culled and censored correspondence. New essays bring into focus central themes that play out in Spooner\u0026rsquo;s transdisciplinary performance work.›\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCALLY SPOONER (*1983, Ascot, UK) is a British artist, based in Athens.
