Description

Art sociologist Pascal Gielen defends the hypothesis that global art scene is an ideal production entity for economic exploitation. These days the workethic of the art world with its ever-present young dynamic, flexible working hours, thematic approach, short-term contracts or lack of contracts and its unlimited energetic freedom is capitalized within the cultural industry and has been converted into a standard production model. In the glow of the creative cities and the creative industry governmetns embrace this post-Henry Ford work model and seamlessly link it to the globally-dominant neo-liberal market economy.
