Boris Groys: Going Public
by Lars Bang Larson (9781934105306)

If all things in the world can be considered sources of aesthetic experience, suggests media critic and philosopher Boris Groys, then art no longer holds a privileged position. Rather, art comes between the subject and the world, and any aesthetic discourse used to legitimize art must also necessarily serve to undermine it. As editor, Groys assembles a multi-layered collection of essays by influential contributors as the latest issue of E-Flux Journal, including noted curator Lars Bang Larson and visual artist Paul Chan. Groys and his contributors attempt to disentangle tensions like artist vs. spectator and creator vs. viewer, presenting artistic practices as a type of public address.
