Nicolas Bourriaud was recently announced<\/strong><\/a> as the chief curator of the 2014 Taipei Biennale to be held at the Taipei Fine Art Museum. The biennale is due to open in September next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bourriaud, currently the director of the \u00c9cole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure des Beaux-Arts, an art school in Paris, is probably best known for coining the term \u201crelational aesthetics\u201d for an exhibition (\u201cTraffic\u201d) and he then produced his eponymous work Relational Aesthetics<\/em> (published in 1998). He also co-founded and co-directed Palais de Tokyo with J\u00e9r\u00f4me Sans (who, incidentally, also curated the 2000 iteration of the Taipei Biennale), the 2005 Lyon Biennale \u201cExperiencing Duration\u201d (also with Sans), and the 4th Tate Triennial entitled \u201cAltermodern\u201d in 2009.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With \u201crelational aesthetics\u201d, Bourriaud identified \u201ca set of artistic practices which take as their theoretical and practical point of departure the whole of human relations and their social context, rather than an independent and private space\u201d (\u201cRelational Aesthetics,\u201d 113). This bundles together artists, beginning in the \u201clong 90s\u201d<\/a><\/strong>, who subvert or exceed the traditional space of the art gallery or the ordinary object-hood of artworks in order to engage lived-in reality \u2014 examples ranging from the Thai curries of Rikrit Tiravanija, to Vanessa Beecroft\u2019s mannequins, to Carsten H\u00f6ller\u2019s theme-park-style slides \/ hotel rooms \/ reindeer-magic-mushroom live diorama (at the Tate Modern, Guggenheim NY, and Hamburger Bahnhof, respectively). Such art is now often used to provide entertainment at art fair biennales while visitors decide which painting or Jeff Koons bunny to buy. Another prominent name is Tino Sehgal, with major shows at the Guggenheim and Tate Modern in recent years, who sets up situations where conversations take place between the enactors and the audience \u2014 which is itself the art work. It is wonderfully democratic because now you can just talk about anything and instantly turn it into art simply by adding at the end \u2013 \u201cThis is \u2018Conversation\u2019 by Tino Sehgal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Considering its profile, \u201crelational aesthetics\u201d has arguably reached its apogee. While the \u201clong 90s\u201d has not exactly been subverted yet (pace<\/em> New Aesthetics or Post-Internet Art), there has already been a backlash to art\u2019s \u201csocial turn\u201d (cf. Claire Bishop\u2019s Artificial Hells<\/em>) with the urgent need to reconfigure the limit of art\u2019s integration into society and the questioning of the nature of such social relations in the age of digital and social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bourriaud stated briefly that he would explore Zhuangzi\u2019s cosmology by way of relational aesthetics. There will surely be much curiosity surrounding his coming visit to Taiwan in December this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
