How would you feel if in your next visit to the Museum of Modern Art in New York , had the opportunity to experience a guided tour of children? Audio Tour Hack is responsible for realizing the idea. The project, Unadulterated MoMA is an audio tour featuring children. Each piece in the permanent collection is analyzed by experts under 10 years old, willing to share their presentations more honest about the true meaning of art and the strange aspect that gets at times.

What makes us experts in an area and how can we determine that we old enough to identify as such? Do you have to do with the time devoted to cultivate this or that discipline? How much influence individual and unique perspective that we show as we approach the subject in question? Audio Tour Hack considered worth asking these questions and, as we decided on an answer, presents an alternative guide for the permanent collection at MoMA, where children share their perceptions of modern art.

Hack Audio Tour is a collective of artists and communicators, specialized in creating sound experiences that guide them interactive, fun, unconventional museums during the tour. In May, the group was offering a tour of an exhibition of John Chamberlain, at the Guggenheim in New York, where the artist's sculptures were understood as the Transformers universe. Yes, the Transformers. Now it's turn to look out the child's perspective. Unadulterated MoMA is an audio guided tour, narrated entirely by children, with the simplicity and grace that this might entail.

MoMA's permanent collection is subjected to criticism from New Yorkers for Children 3 to 10 years. In case you are interested in your opinions scholarly (and the museum is too far or you do not plan to visit), the audio file can be downloaded from the website . Children offer their views, endearing, absurd, honest, hilarious, and his criticism of artists like Jackson Pollock or Andy Warhol .

The experience sounds fun and helps to remove the sacred mantle of art we love the dress. The untouchable museum pieces no longer seem so solemn. Make an established artist in the spotlight of children is a bit like watching him in his underwear. If art is meant to be universal, impossible to ignore the views of children.
