Why use Neokuratin?
Neokuratin is a preparation developed specifically for treating the endophenomenon of curatorial dependency. It is for use in professions in which the idea of a gradual convergence of art and life are emphasized in a life-long work process. Among fine artists, in particular, this striving for convergence may result in endo-active realityshifts (cf. cognitive dissonance, Münchhausentrilemma, etc.). These shifts are expressed as complexes of their own as this attitude (mindset) is acquired through professional training and is supported at the personal core.
Should mental compensatory mechanisms react to this for an extended period of time with the obsessive belief that the personal art-life context’s development is decisively shaped by external causes (curator interests, collection contacts, invitations to biennials, museum acquisitions, etc.), then it is possible to speak of the endophenomenon of curatorial dependency.
Current readings indicate that the recording of perceptive impulses is 5000x greater for fine artists than for other professional groups. Since the final stage of endophenomen of curatorial dependency is usually expressed as a trivial delegation of one’s own responsibilities to external factors, society loses the influence of many of its most valuable individuals. Neokuratin has been specially developed to dissolve this vacuum from within. Tests conducted at various Belgian art academies, in gallery districts, and in art museums have proven its effectiveness. These studies were conducted in 2004 and 2006 in two double blind, placebo-controlled experiments, each for a ten month period.
Neokuratin thereby fortifies the body’s own power of resistance against leveling influences and mental, i.e., psychological and internal dependencies.
Neokuratin has a stimulating effect and is to be used in cases of:
- advanced impressions of loss of autonomy, in cases that appear to go beyond the socio-historically necessary dimensions. Signs of this can be an increased obsession with adapting to structures assumed to be totalitarian and can therefore be expressed in compulsive acts.
- construction of an image of the creative self that adopts forms of hybris.
