In the context of contemporary art, what is your vision of a yet unknown art?



SYNOPSIS

To have a vision of the unknown is itself a special though old picture of both art and art theory following old avantgarde myths of the visionary and the radical. While the "Anthology of Art" embraces diversity and the unforeseeable, it is still attached to the auctorial function of the initiator's name and to an idea of mirroring the whole of a global society. In the context of this piece of contemporary art, I argue for a re-working of the discourse on "the radical, the singular and the franc", desiring a starter within the realms of, e.g., the digital/the virtual/gender/mass culture.
