In the Flow

A leading art theorist reflects on art in the internet age.
Throughout the 20th century, faith in the stability of artistic institutions gradually diminished. Accordingly, so did the hope of artists for the preservation of artworks in museums, and their accessibility for future viewers. As a result, art began to produce not objects, but events (from performance to social projects). Information about these events is preserved in the form of artistic documentation, which can primarily be found on the internet.
