Hello Kurl-ga,
Thank you for your question.
The art exhibit youre referring to is Sponsorship. This exhibit is
located in a small Los Angeles art gallery called BlkMrkt and will be
on view through March 21.
Here is a short excerpt from the article:
Your Logo Goes Here: An art exhibit with no art, just ads by Rob
Walker
Posted Monday, March 3, 2003
Last month, when a small Los Angeles art gallery called BlkMrkt
opened its new show, "Sponsorship," a more-than-capacity crowd turned
up. Hundreds of people (including, rumor has it, Keanu Reeves) were
unable to get in before the fire marshal shut the proceedings down.
Curiously, all this buzz was for an art exhibit with no art. The
visuals are just logos, chosen not for aesthetic reasons, but for
monetary ones: The inclusion and display size of the logos was a
matter of who agreed to sponsor the show and how much they paid.
