In her work Laughing Crowd Sound Piece, Angela Bulloch purposefully discomforts museumgoers. As viewers walk through a space, their presence triggers sounds of laughing and jeering. By making museum-goers the subject of judgment, Bulloch turns the viewers into art themselves. She positions them as victims to inescapable judgment and anonymous criticism, just like the art hung on the walls. Bulloch’s piece thus comments on the toxicity of the art world, as artists’ works are mercilessly criticized. Thus, in creating this discomfort, Bulloch makes space for discussion about the art world. She calls for museumgoers to reevaluate their approach to artistic critique. Rather than entering a museum space solely to judge and critique art, Bulloch wants viewers to engage thoughtfully with works, as they represent the artists themselves.
