The celebration of works of art. This article consists of study of particular example of art literature : the catalogue of the exposition "Les Cubistes" which took pla.ce in 1973 in Paris and Bordeaux .This study attempts to show how, in a given geographical, political and historical situation, the catalogue of an exposition constitutes means of inculcating and rendering legitimate a certain conception or defined image of a "work of art". In this intent, the catalogue is all the more effective since it does not appear to be means to this end. The conveyed image or conception serves actual political intentions while, at the same time, it disguises and conceals them. The catalogue is also oriented to the advantage of the real and symbolic interests of a dominating group of agents composed of divers administrators of artistic institution (museums, galaries, private collections, art critics and historians). all represent one variant of sacerdotal propheti- cism This propheticism is actually stategy of symbolic domination that philosophy previously dominating discipline has produced in order to maintain its domination by treating scholastic rea ding of sacred texts as contribution to science Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
