  • 导读
  • “当代艺术”为何物,许是以普世价值为精神指向的一次新历险。

  • 内容简介
  • 鲜血淋漓的玩具士兵、镀金的超市购物车,还有用乐高积木拼成的集中营:当代艺术似乎是一个如野草般自由生长和蔓延的领域。艺术家们不断地打破各种禁忌,创作出惊世骇俗的作品。在观者眼中,这些作品也许艰深晦涩引人苦苦思索,也许琐屑无聊令人大跌眼镜。

    然而,在惊叹之余,我们是否思考过这些问题:当代艺术是否真的绝对自由?它的“当代性”表现在哪里?政治和经济环境对当代艺术有着怎样的影响?在这个全球化的时代,艺术世界又是由什么来推动运转的?读了这本小书,或许你会对当代艺术有一个全新的认识。

    Contemporary art has never been so popular, but what is its role today and who is controlling its future? Contemporary art is supposed to be a realm of freedom where artists shock, break taboos, flout generally received ideas, and switch between confronting viewers with works of great emotional profundity and jaw-dropping triviality. But away from shock tactics in the gallery, there are many unanswered questions. Who is really running the art world? What effect has America's growing political and cultural dominance had on art?

    Here Julian Stallabrass takes us inside the international art world to answer these and other controversial questions, and to argue that behind contemporary art's variety and apparent unpredictability lies a grim uniformity. Its mysteries are all too easily explained, its depths much shallower than they seem. Contemporary art seeks to bamboozle its viewers while being the willing slave of business and government. This book is your antidote and will change the way you see contemporary art.
