Names[edit]
- Circulationism
Origin[edit]
- Coined by artist Hito Steyerl in her 2014 publication, Circulationism.
Definitions and Descriptions[edit]
- According to Steyerl, "What the Soviet avant-garde of the twentieth century called productivism – the claim that art should enter production and the factory – could now be replaced by circulationism. Circulationism is not about the art of making an image, but of post-producing, launching, and accelerating it. It is about the public relations of images across social networks, about advertisement and alienation, and about being as suavely vacuous as possible."
