[arg_discuss] Sophie Calle

[Christy Dena]

Yes, I'm looking at Nicolas Bourriaud's 'relational aesthetics' and its
relation to ARGs! There is a definate mix there. Here are some pieces
online:

Some quotes here:
http://www.dynamitefamily.com/charlie/os_readings/relationalaesthetics.pdf

A glossary here:
http://www.gairspace.org.uk/htm/bourr.htm 

An interview here:
Bourriaud, Nicolas. 'Public Relations: Bennett Simpson Talks With Nicolas
Bourriaud', Artforum (April 2001). Reproduced online at
http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0268/is_8_39/ai_75830815

The Skinny?:
"Relational Aesthetics = Aesthetic theory consisting in judging artworks on
the basis of the inter-human relations which they represent, produce or
prompt."

Cheers,
Christy

(sorry, the listmanager seems to prevent attachements despite attempting 
to override it)

For archival reasons, it would be much better anyway if you could just 
copy/paste in the full text.

Thanks,
