Description

Nicolas Bourriaud’s seminal text defines the artistic practices of the 1990s that prioritize human interactions and their social context over traditional object-based production. By examining works that function as sites for social exchange, the author establishes a theoretical framework for understanding art as a set of relations within a given culture rather than an autonomous space.
