Interieur, Brandscape und Interface als Formate der Kunstpräsentation
Contemporary art can often hardly be distinguished from advertising - it is superficial and affirmative of the capitalist presentation of goods. The 9th Berlin Biennale 2016, "The Present in Drag", curated by the New York collective DIS, was confronted with this accusation. This book examines how post-internet art behaves in the exhibition space. The post-digital displays by Christopher Kulendran Thomas, Timur Si-Qin and Débora Delmar take center stage. The author claims that the quality of these works lies in their lack of distance from economic circulation systems, in the strategies of branding and in the reference to their spaces and surfaces.
