A Gift for a Curator

Stallabrass states about net.art: “What is the market to make of a work that is reproducible with perfect accuracy, that can simultaneously exist on thousands of servers and millions of computers, …? How can one buy, sell, or own such a portion of data?”. I was a part of net.art and understanding art as an asset, still intrigues me these days. How to do a painting than, which is not meant to be sold and hang on the wall? Art is about experience. I wonder, how will a curator, how will she experience a both-side painted paper, where images on both sides are in some relation. She daily receives offers from artists, but this thing is not an offer or a promotion or a request. How will she feel, while asking herself, who is sending this and why?
