About The Book

As the institutionalization of the avant-garde took place, postmodern theory both reacted to and helped create the forces that eroded reason and even taste, labeled them quaint in the name of a postmodern theory, at the same time that mass commodity form was inscribing exchange value on all work of the imagination. In fact, the reality is that the system, the society of domination has enclosed discourse in such a way that, coupled to new social media and electronic platforms, all radical, all working class or under class voices are pre vetted or erased, and only the most craven corporate financialize kitsch is validated. The collusion of galleries, collectors and curators, following the model of studio film and network v, has equated popularity with quality. The problem then is to recuperate something of the lost radical conscience of art and culture. There is now an amnesia about the prehistory of society, of our own psyches, and of the imagination. The colonizing of consciousness has rendered the imagination of the west atrophied and almost inert. All art is a recreation of our own psychic formation (mimesis) as well as being shaped by its otherness’, by a purposelessness. All stories are crime stories, all stories are about exile, and all stories are about homesickness. And all art contains a narrative. for only by having no purpose can the artwork posit the direction to which society must look to create an other’ or elsewhere. To retain something of that utopian promise that is foundational in culture. The world is being disenchanted. The utopian promise is not kept.”
