CRISIS AS FORM - PETER OSBORNE KARTONIERT (TB)

Criticism of contemporary art is split by an opposition between activism and the critical
function of form. Yet the deeper  more subterranean terms of art-judgment are largely neglected
on both sides. These essays combine a re-examination of the terms of judgement of contemporary
art with critical interpretations of individual works and exhibitions by Luis Camnitzer  Marcel
Duchamp  Matias Faldbakken  Anne Imhof and Cady Noland. The book moves from philosophical
issues  via the lingering shadows of medium-specificity (in photography and art music)  and the
changing states of museums  to analyses of the peculiar ways that works of art relate to
time.To give artistic form to crisis  it is suggested  one needs to understand contemporary
art's own constitutive crisis of form.
