Hello! Welcome! It’s a beautiful show, isn’t it? You can always expect a nice greeting from the art of Andrea Fraser, which interrogates the details and distinctions of the art world with a beaming smile — before going in for the kill. Fraser is the ardent successor of a generation of artists whose querying of museums and their procedures came to be known as “institutional critique”: Hans Haacke, say, who polled visitors to MoMA about their income and political views, or Daniel Buren, whose unvarying stripes exposed how the museum directs attention and turns mere pictures into works of art. Fraser, in turn, examined not art’s spaces but its languages, and probed the discourses that museums — not to mention art magazines! — use to legitimate art, and themselves. In Official Welcome (2001), she mercilessly parroted the prattle of gallerists, donors, and taciturn artists, all giving the same toasts on the art world’s never-ending cocktail party circuit. (“He may be obsessed with death,” says Fraser, channeling some dumb dealer, “but only because he has such an incredible passion for life.”) Performances were followed by videos, in which art and politics got mixed up with sex. In Little Frank and His Carp (2001), Fraser listens to the Guggenheim Bilbao’s ludicrous audio guide and becomes uncontrollably turned on. Then came Untitled (2003), which dramatized the workings of the market in a peculiar way: she fucked a collector on camera, and sold the video in an edition of five.
