Reflections from today`s workshop ...

  • Rustom Bharucha (2007) came up with a very good question: Does an improvisatory, interventionist, activist art practice have the capacity to change social relationships?
  • Nicolas Bourriaud in Rational Aesthetics (1988) claims that "art is the place that produces a specific sociability", precisely because "it tightens the space of relations, (unlike TV)."
