Über diesen Titel

Contemporary art has never been so popular - but the art world is changing. In a landscape of increasing globalization, there is growing interest in questions over the nature of contemporary art today and the identity of who is controlling its future. In the midst of this, contemporary art continues 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.

In this Very Short Introduction audiobook, Julian Stallabrass gives a clear view on the diverse and rapidly moving scene of contemporary art. Exploring art's striking globalization from the 1990s onward, he analyzes how new regions and nations, such as China, have leapt into astonishing prominence, over-turning the old Euro-American dominance on aesthetics. Showing how contemporary art has drawn closer to fashion and the luxury goods market as artists have become accomplished marketers of their work, Stallabrass discusses the reinvention of artists as brands. This new edition also considers how once powerful art criticism has mutated into a critical and performative writing at which many artists excel.

I stopped listening after the introduction. It’s sad that it has apparently become impossible to read (or for that matter listen) to contemporary writing in the humanities without being waterboarded in postmodernist grievance studies. The usual intersectional critiques of the malign Western-capitalist patriarchy are as predictable as they are uninspiring and frankly boring.

A waste of time drenched in woke prose
