Institutional Attitudes: Instituting Art In A Flat World
**New edition with black and white cover design
Todayâs networked society offers us many wondrous possibilities of information, communication, mobility, and flexibility. It also has a latent side effect: it makes the world âflatâ. Time-honoured hierarchies, traditions, elites and canons are subject to erosive movements. In such a flattened, âhorizontalâ world, art institutions are finding it difficult to survive. After all, institutions such as these traditionally represent âverticalityâ â historic profundity, tradition, values, dignity, and certainty.
