FORM MATTERS MATTER FORMS FROM READYMADE TO PRO...

From Readymade to Product Fetish  Ever since the invention of the readymade at the start of the
last century  when everyday objects were selected to be shown as art objects  the
differentiation between art and everyday life is no longer straightforward and now very much
dependent on context. The public presentation of readymades and their appropriation in the
context of Pop Art during the 1960s  a period of great economic prosperity  has considerably
increased the influence of both product and advertising design on art. Aesthetics familiar from
everyday life have brought about fundamental changes in art in terms of content. Art
appreciation can no longer function without considering the interdepen­dencies between the
operating system of art and its development within consumer society. The appropriation of
consumer goods has turned the microsystem of art into an actual zone of conflict between
­material and materialism  and works of art have thus become veritable fetish objects. These
interdependencies form the point of departure for the exhibition and the ac­com­panying book
»Form Matters  Matter Forms. From Readymade to Product fetisch« with works ranging from Marcel
Duchamp to the present day.     Artists:     Cory Arcangel  John Armleder  Monica Bonvicini
