Description
The twelve chapters of Another Artworld: Pursuing New Organisational Modes embody a critical analysis of artistic creation and its public in the contemporary art world while exploring ways to overcome the de facto dictum of entrepreneurship in the global art markets. These essays, written by scholars with a variety of specializations in the artworld, question existing governance principles and decision-making models in the visual arts. They also question the humanist thesis that artistic labor is a non-utilitarian human activity, the opposite of work, in service only of self-fulfillment and personal, expressive needs (i.e., art for art's sake). The anomalous social manipulation of the Covid-19 pandemic revealed that both in neoliberal capitalist countries and on their geopolitical periphery, art has become the elite priviledge of materially secure individuals rather than the common heritage and birthright of all citizens.
