Time

Description

Anthologie met teksten over het tijdsbegrip in de hedendaagse beeldende kunst. - What does 'contemporary' actually mean? This is among the fundamental questions about the nature and politics of time that philosophers, artists and more recently curators have investigated over the past two decades. Recent art has explored such diverse registers of temporality as wasting and waiting, regression and repetition, déjà vu and seriality, unrealized possibility and idleness, non-consummation and counter-productivity, the belated and the premature, the disjointed and the out-of-sync - all of which go against sequentialist time and index slips in chronological experience. This collection surveys contemporary art and theory that proposes a wealth of alternatives to outdated linear models of time
