Contemporary Artists and the Consciousness of Their Era 

 -  2002.<br/>							 
<br/><br/> 25 
<br/><br/> We examine the changed conditions under which artists accomplish their work, and the consciousness they now have of their work, and of the forms which it takes. If the ideal of a revolutionary consciousness is no longer part of the artistic agenda, this does not necessarily imply that artists have abandoned the aim of opening up the reality of the current moment to a space where the intimation of something other is preserved.
