Forever Art Character – Act 1: The Outsider

Art Character saga: Part 12

Stanislaus and the Fitness Coach – two characters from Nicklas Hoffmann’s various web series – must bring their film saga to a close, finding themselves confronted with their pasts in an endlessly white space. Eventually, their captor is revealed: the Devil himself. What does it all mean?

Forever Art Character marks the conclusion of the Art Character saga in a two-part finale. Act 1: The Outsider was created in collaboration with ChatGPT for the exhibition Die Aussenseiterbande, which was on view at the Galerie der Künstler*innen in Munich from May 16 to June 18, 2023.

Related performance: To kick off the exhibition, the recurring figure Stanislaus – using a Ouija board and with the assistance of the viewers – invited the spirits of good art into the space. The mantra was “Hello, hello, hello good artworks.”
