Art Scenes: The Social Scripts of the Art World. Presentation of his new book


sintesi del comunicato stampa

A Blade of Grass presents the release of Pablo Helguera's new book, published by Jorge Pinto Books, New York. Starting in the mid-1990s, either through performance, drawing, music, theater or literary fiction, the work of Pablo Helguera has extensively addressed the social dynamics of the contemporary art world. This book brings together Helguera's research on the subject in essay form, aiming to contribute to the neglected area of the sociology of contemporary art. In this provocative new book, Helguera argues that contemporary art makes us perform self-conscious or instinctive interpretive acts; and that the construction of value in artworks is determined less by the objects themselves down effect on practically every aspect of art in society. Discussion with Paddy Johnson, Art Fag City Editorial Director, and Pablo Helguera.
