ENTKUNSTUNG III Preface

We use somatic exercises and partner work to find this feeling from the inside out, rather than applying an external shape on our bodies.

Avant-garde’s opponent is not waiting on the other side of the battlefield. It resides within the own troop.

Books are portraits of their time; they are like mirrors, reflecting how we see and perceive ourselves.

beyond chance and control

Tracing the limits of criticism is not only a question of truth but also a matter of decision.

The digital stucco becomes part of the process of the “emancipation of the sign”.

Doch die Friedhofsruhe, die jetzt andächtig um Kiefers Werk verbreitet wird, ist aus dem gleichen Stoff, wie die hysterischen Abgrenzungsversuche, weil beides dem Werk äußerlich bleibt und aus deutschen Projektionen besteht.

One of the tasks of art criticism is 
to make evident the discursive qualities of artistic creation.

02 ON AESTHETICS

Under post-Fordist conditions, the capitalisation of the immaterial work has managed to be integrated into artistic labour.

How can we break the ahistoric informatic screens in the laboratories and camps of this world that take away the eyes and parts of the bodies today as we‘re governed by opaque oceans of data?

It is evident that art is not going to redeem us—and it is not its function to do so.
