BOURRIAUD's POSTPRODUCTION 5 (plus 1) Reflective questions

1: IN UNDERSTANDING THE LINK BETWEEN ARTIST AND ENVIRONMENT, WHAT IS THE CULTURAL ECOSYSTEM OF THE 21ST CENTURY ARTIST AND HOW DOES THAT RELATE TO CONSUMERISM?

BERNARD JOISTEN




2:WITHOUT HUMAN EXPERIENCE DOES "ART" EXIST?

DAN GRAHAM







3:WITH THE MULTITUDE OF CHARACTERS BEING USED IN THE PRODUCTION OF ART AND OUR UNDERSTANDING OF EACH OF THOSE CHARACTERS' IDEOLOGIES, DOES THE ARTIST WANT THE VIEWER TO CREATE A FABLELISTIC UNDERSTANDING OF THE WORK BEING PRODUCED? AND DOES THIS BECOME EFFECTED BY OUR OWN PERSONAL ANALYSIS OF THESE CHARACTERS IN THE FRAME WORK THEY ARE BEING DISPLAYED IN?

DOMINIQUE GONZALEZ-FOERSTER




4:HOW HAVE THE TOOLS WE USE TO UNDERSTAND THE WORLD CHANGED? HOW HAS CHANGING THE TOOLS WE USED TO UNDERSTAND THE WORLD CHANGE OUR WAY OF PRECIECING THE ART OF THE WORLD?

LIAM GILLICK



5:IN REFERENCE TO PARRENO, BOURRIAUD WRITES ABOUT EXPOSING THE "VENTRILOQUIST" AND SHOWING THE HUMANNESS WITHIN THE ORIGINS OF EVERDAY OBJECTS. BY EXPOSING WHO IS BEHIND THE CURTAIN WILL THAT EFFECT THE PRODUCTS MEANING OR CONSUMPTION? WILL IT GIVE MORE MEANING TO THESE EVERYDAY PRODUCTS OR WILL IT ALLOW FOR A DISTINCT SEPERATION BETWEEN ARTIST AND OBJECTS OF CONSUMPTION?

PHILIPPE PARRENO




6:DO YOU THINK THAT WHEN BOURRIAD WRITES, "IT IS UP TO US AS BEHOLDERS OF ART TO JUDGE ARTWORKS IN TERMS OF THE RELATIONS THEY PRODUCE IN THE SPECIFIC CONTEXT THEY INHABIT," THAT HE IS REFERENCING RE-ESTABLISHING THE "AURA" OF THE ART WORK?
