art is inherently inconvenient, so is buying art from an artist making a living
Seattle's 'Inconvenience Store' sells pre-tangled USB cords as art
Seattle artists Lilia Deering and Mary Anne Carter turned a former 7-Eleven into the Inconvenience Store, an interactive exhibit stocking about 70 mostly local artists across 14 departments. Offerings include pre-tangled USB cords, shoulder bags sewn from Cheetos and Lays wrappers, beeswax egg candles, and a landline iPhone that plays only U2's Vertigo when answered. Items are genuinely for sale at $1 to $10,000; organizers say the aim is approachable, price-transparent art buying. It opened Saturday and runs weekends, noon to 4 p.m.
