Advertising of an Idea, 1976  
   

David Troostwyk

For this project visual artist David Troostwyk bought himself time for 9 "Advertisements of an Idea" on the commercial station Capital Radio.

Subsequently this intervention into the public space of radio-advertisement was brought back into the space of media- art by AUDIO ARTS, Radio by Artists and Kunst heute/Kunstradio thus even in its reception inside a media art-scene emphasizing the the piece's highly successful character of avoiding the traditional art-system and its hierarchical mediated forms of distribution to a specialised audience.
