Description

Explore the complex intersection of art, power and cultural politics through this comprehensive examination of contemporary art biennials. This Routledge academic text investigates how major art events function as sites of prestige, innovation and experimentation, where artistic categories are constantly rearranged and redefined. The book analyses the paradoxical spaces where elitist and popular cultures coexist, examining how contemporary biennials engage with critical theory, counterculture movements and neoliberal cultural policies. Drawing on the legacy of events that merge art with critical discourse, this volume offers essential insights into how global art institutions shape cultural narratives, define artistic value and navigate contradictions between commercial interests and artistic critique. Ideal for art historians, curators, academics and cultural theorists seeking to understand the institutional frameworks that govern contemporary visual culture and the role of biennials in reshaping artistic practice.

Key Features

Part of the Routledge Advances in Art and Visual Studies series, offering peer-reviewed scholarship on contemporary visual culture and curatorial practice.

Examines how art biennials function as spaces where artistic categories are perpetually rearranged, redefined and opened to global influences and contradictions.

Analyses the cohabitation of elitist and popular culture within biennial exhibitions, exploring tensions between avant-garde practice and mass accessibility.

Integrates critical theory and counterculture legacy into its examination of how contemporary art events construct meaning and institutional authority.

Provides essential reading for understanding biennial politics, neoliberal cultural policy and the role of prestige events in defining contemporary artistic value.
