Clear Allegiance features the artist demonstrating by himself in the streets of Harlem with a transparent flag Guagnini starts in the poorest part of the neighborhood near a trash processing plant and walks up to Columbia University an island of privilege to which he indeed belongs himself as a professor In keeping with the entwined politics of disenchanted capitulation and sly subversion repositioning himself as a child of the failed revolutionary promises of 1968 Guagnini waves his flag in nonheroic moments making the context his content contingency his ideology Negation and retreat are not an option but neither is utopia Transparency surveillance public space reflection and reflexivity constitute the elements of Guagninis critical poetics of his time and space Source httpswwwkinosuedcom
