In recent weeks, visitors to the new exhibition galleries in the refurbished Museum of Contemporary Art have reported all manner of harmful effects: the inability to ‘get’ an artwork, information plaque fatigue, severe cases of involuntary eye-rolling…
 
If you show any of these or other undesirable symptoms in a gallery setting, let artist Jason Maling assist with his special brand of homeopathic therapy. For ‘Physician’, part of the MCA’s Local Positioning Systems performance season, Maling will conduct therapeutic one-on-one sessions with gallery visitors to discuss all their art-based physiological and psychological troubles. Perhaps you suffer from ‘Severe Relational Deficiency’ or ‘Metaphobia’. You could have a case of ‘Generalised Indifference Disorder’ or ‘Mild Conceptual Perturbation’. Sessions are by appointment only – register at the MCA information desk on the day – and, remember, if symptoms persist, see your Degas.

Physician is part of the MCA's Local Positioning Systems performance season. Read more on Local Positioning Systems
