One day I noticed a ladder that was placed in the center of the contemporary art hall when I was visiting a museum. Some audience (including me) took it as a piece of artwork, however, in fact, it was just a normal tool which workers left here for a while. Situations like this happen sometimes. It comes to me that institutions, such as museums and galleries, have a nature to give objects and events additional values. As a result, the audience may even not tell if some accidents happen on purpose in the museums. Some people believe that there seem to be no fixed standards in contemporary art. What if an ordinary object in an art museum becomes an "unorthodox artwork" where the audience generates thinking and gains artistic feelings, in this case, can the object be elevated to become artwork?

Consequently, how will galleries judge a single pair of glasses if it has already been mistaken by the audience as art in the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and exposed by media? I would like to borrow the existing art and news value of this glasses story and ask galleries in Shanghai for pop-up exhibitions to see if this pair of glasses is going to be treated and valued as a real piece of artwork with experience.

I sent emails in the glasses’ words to galleries asking if pop-up exhibitions would occur in their spaces to test the possibility for this pair of glasses to be a real piece of artwork.
