In Duty Free Art, filmmaker and writer Hito Steyerl wonders how we
can appreciate, or even make art, in the present age. What can we
do when arms manufacturers sponsor museums, and some of the world's
most valuable artworks are used as a fictional currency in a global
futures market that has nothing to do with the work itself? Can we
distinguish between creativity and the digital white noise that
bombards our everyday lives? Exploring artefacts as diverse as
video games, Wikileaks files, the proliferation of spam, and
political actions, she exposes the paradoxes within globalization,
political economies, visual culture, and the status of art
production.
