VIEW PDF: THE MIMETIC EXACERBATION. REVOLUTION AT THE GATES
The Mimetic Exacerbation. Revolution at the Gates. The paper retraces the lineages between Dada and contemporary artists like Iza Genzken or Thomas Hirschhorn whose critical view upon social and political reality is based on the same ideas of equality, collective body and commonism as in the case of early avant-garde. Contrary to more recent neoliberal reductions of Dada to a romantic, irrational cry for freedom, more complex interpretations are revisited in the texts of Adorno, Benjamin or Hal Foster that prove that the aesthetic and political relevance of Dada (then and now) is to be found in the connection between anarchic forms of deconstruction and the idea and the forms of the commons.
Keywords: revolution, commonism, equality, Event, collective body, spaces-of-flows.
