Title: Jippies asquerosos
Description: Disgusting Jippies is an art project by Willy Kautz. Created in 2006, based on the concept of the supersensible, this fictional collective works at the crossroads between curatorship and the production of immersive montages. The performance component, whether in street improvisations, or inviting cylinder makers to reproduce sound to unhinge viewers in a closed apartment; or by destroying the exhibitions, a curatorial modality called performative disassemblyʺ, they have been a constant in the configuration of a bet on experiences that explore the disgustingness of the supersensible. In this sense, the proposals of the disgusting Jippies consist of immersion pseudo-rituals that combine art history, political economy, ecology, psychedelia and concretist aesthetics for the creation of critical essays sublimated by visual effectism and quackery
