SERIES DESCRIPTION
Each & Every One of You (EEOOY) is a mock TV show pilot that teaches ordinary people how to make contemporary installation art. If these words strike fear into your heart or make you cringe with memories of seeing contemporary art and wondering what the it was all about, this show is for you!
Inspired by the fifties, celebrity art instructor Jon Gnagy who taught thousands of pioneer NBC TV viewers how to draw hokie landscapes. EEOOY host Andy Jenny show how fun and easy it can be to make contemporary art using his Four Installation Art Directives™.
EEOOY is a sincere but irreverent 1980’s-cable-TV-style show written and acted by ex-art critic Don Goodes. Unlike any other show on the subject, it embraces rather than tries to sidestep a central paradox: contemporary art is simultaneously profoundly significant and completely irrelevant. The show is funny and educational. Where ever EEOOY has been shown, in art galleries, museums and on cable TV in Canada, the US and Spain, it has become a cult-classic.
Two 30 minute pilots that were co-produced at the Banff Centre for the Arts in Alberta Canada in the late nineties, as part of the Pop Sub n’Mass Culture Residency.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION
THE WEIRDNESS INSTALLATION EPISODE is a madcap creation involving a dirty old stuffed dog, the wanton scattering of lint and much more. Anne Marie (Anne Marie LĂ©ger) is there with viewer letters. As always, the critic (Caterina Pizanias) drops by to interpret Andy’s latest creation. And, as a bonus, you’ll visit the Art Shopping Channel (hosted by Lyle Ashton Harris and Anne Davis Mulford). Original soundtrack by Pierre Allard and Michel Gionet.
Duration : 0:15:53

awesome, this guy knows what he is talking about. With an amazing amount of humour. Reminds me of Maurizio Cattelan. He is laughing at art and then at times is serious too. I really want to see where this going

but you can say …
but you can say this of other forms of art. I mean take photography for instance. how much skill is required to snap a photo? how much creativity is required…probably as much or less than making an installation. lots of art type can be labeled as not needing much talent…. like this video for instance. with out installation art to make fun of…this art video would not be possible.

Hi Bwhahrhr, Thanks …
Hi Bwhahrhr, Thanks for watching EEOOY. Yes, the avant guard always had a populist current. There are many artists that wished to break down the barriers between art and life. I have always seen EEOOY as part of this tradition.

Hilariously funny mockamentary moments and yet deadly serious core…its hard to figure out when the joke ends and where the real art begins. Fodder for thought!
