In using the contexts and institutions of art tactically for critical engagement with social relations and contradictions, the effect of these aesthetic tactics are flattened and separated from the field they are engaged with. An effective impact in real struggles and media processes does not need legitimacy by artistry.
A shift in the imagining of art as an autonomous field of production to a constructed yet also constructing act would ask a political art practise
(or any other cultural production) to move towards a relational conceptualism.
