Description
To
celebrate
its
90th
anniversary
(in
2008)
,
Otis
commissioned
Bruce
Yonemoto
('79
,
OTIS
MFA
Fine
Arts)
to
produce
and
premiere
a
new
installation
titled
"
Simulations.
" The
title
is
a
nod
to
French
philosopher/theorist
Jean
Baudrillard
(1929-2007)
, and his
influential
1983
essay
,
published
by
Semiotext(e)'s
new
Foreign
Agents
Series
.
Yonemoto
agrees
with
Baudrillard
that
we
live
in a
world
where
Disneyland
exists
to
make
us
believe
that
outside
of the
fantasy
park
is
reality
,
when
in
fact
,
America
is
a
Disneyland
. In
writing
about
"
Simulations
"
Yonemoto
describes
his
desire
to
recreate
a
childhood
icon
as "a
hyper-real
representation
of
Disneyland's
Matterhorn
thus
finally
making
Disney's
mountain
the
allegorical
referent
, the "
real
"
Matterhorn
of
our
collective
memory.
