Criticism of contemporary art is split by an opposition between
activism and the critical function of form. Yet the deeper, more
subterranean terms of art-judgment are largely neglected on both
sides. These essays combine a re-examination of the terms of
judgement of contemporary art with critical interpretations of
individual works and exhibitions by Luis Camnitzer, Marcel Duchamp,
Matias Faldbakken, Anne Imhof and Cady Noland. The book moves from
philosophical issues, via the lingering shadows of
medium-specificity (in photography and art music), and the changing
states of museums, to analyses of the peculiar ways that works of
art relate to time.To give artistic form to crisis, it is
suggested, one needs to understand contemporary art's own
constitutive crisis of form.
