[Nettime-bold] subsol webzine |
Apologies for cross postings subsol http://subsol.c3.hu (now in flash and anti-flash) subsol is a collaborative webzine venture stemming out of several dissatisfactions-with an intellectual discourse that has become increasingly stupid, sterile, and academic, with art as a series of mediations by institutions, curators, and theoretical frameworks often foreign to actual practices, and with the cultural politics and political culture of an easy epoch. As a matter of principle, all zine contributions are from artists, organizers of independent spaces, and those involved at the point of production--and not from art critics. Although many of the occidental names that appear here may already be known, especially among a net community that is, after all, not that global, one of the aims of subsol is providing a forum for the emergence of unheard texts and unseen works from the territory of what was once called, not without ideological prejudice, "Eastern" Europe. (check out monadology) First issue is now online: Art Beneath the Edge of Politics Today, everything is political, most of all the idea of the post-political. But not everything is political in the same measure. The historical catastrophe of the avant-gardes was that in taking themselves seriously as political vehicles-producing manifestoes, holding congresses, operating as closed entities preserving doctrinal purity--they became the bureaucratic doubles of the system they sought to challenge. Art is political when it is politics by other means, made in strange tongues and foreign gestures, and when it is not reducible to the functional equivalent of a concept.
