Fear from Art Institutions: Participatory Art and Its “Hierarchies” (link)
Excerpt:
"The shift from establishing relations to and between objects towards relations between subjects and the public that recently took place in the field of art has been highly influenced by philosophical or sociological theories of democratisation of art and its institutional structures. [1] The main aim of participatory art in great deal overlaps with a kind of deconstruction of the renowned hierarchies between “high” and “low” art. However, I want to point to a certain paradox: that such “participatory shift" in arts simultaneously creates new hierarchies and differentiations, new fears and obstacles."
