From the current context, we will examine how each agent of the art system is responsible for its action, but how each action affects the whole system. We will also look at how these agents are currently reconfiguring themselves and how this is possibly creating a new format. We will delve deeper into the discussion of the artist’s position in the current art system. We will include cases and try to arrive at some viable lines of action in this system that is being redefined. It will be a conversation that will raise a lot of dust since the subject is open and under discussion.
