Art and Thingness, part 2

Issue 15 of the e-flux journal contains part 2 of my serial Art and Thingness. Titled "Thingification," this installment focuses on Productivism and its afterlife. The same issue contains an essay by Hito Steyerl that resonates strongly with my own. After feedback from Eric de Bruyn, I also tweaked the ending of part 1 of my text, from issue no. 13, and the new and improved version of that part is now online as well (thanks to my tolerant editor, Brian Kuan Wood).

This is a pseudo-blog chronicling my critical, historical and/or theoretical writings on modern and contemporary art and culture. It is intended purely as a more or less regularly updated list of my own writings, as well as of my occasional activities as a "Sunday curator." This isn't necessarily a complete listing. I may not mention some small occasional writings; the focus is on texts that really reflect my current interests and research.

I try very hard not to turn this into an actual blog, though from time to time circumstances may force me to post comments and reflections on cultural politics and on my own practice.I always try to link to the publications in which my texts appear, and if possible to the online versions of the texts themselves. Unfortunately, not many of my articles are available online in their entirety, or for free, and currently I'm not able to post PDFs myself.
