Brief Introduction “What do we want from art – and what does art want from us?” A series of 3 conferences by Joshua Decter in partnership with AIR 351 The History of Art on Social Media (The Work of Art in the Age of Social Mediation) How can we imagine a revisionist history of contemporary art that takes into account the way art has been recontextualised, and also decontextualised, on social media? I will propose that it is possible, if not necessary, to develop a revisionist reading that analyses how art has been transformed by the circuits of these platforms. Supplementary Notes The event will be conducted in English.
