    The relational artwork and the antagonism2010Independent thesis Basic level (professional degree), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    The primary foundation for writing this thesis originates from my interest in, whether or not there exists a critical potential, within the art form of relational aesthetics. In a World order, where capitalism seems to overshadow the critical potential within the arts, it can be difficult to imagine the position, from where art could have a significant influence in changing political and social issues. Regardless, it is my fundamental belief, that art will always have a privileged possibility of urging the viewer to question the existing. Grounded in a critical text analysis of Nicolas Bourriuads’ essay collection, Estetique Relationelle (1998), where, amongst other theorists, Clare Bishop, Stewart Martin and Grant Kester are implicated for a nuanced discussion. Accompanied by an analysis of the two relational works; It is What it Is, Conversations About Iraq and The American War, -This thesis argues that relational aesthetics does not succeed in creating a real critique of the social and political structures that surrounds us. Though, Bishop, inspired by the Belgian theorist Chantal Moueffe, introduces the idea of the antagonism as a possible critique carrier, and hereby leaves a fragment of hope for critique.
