POLITICITY OF CONTEMPORARY INSTALLATIONS
Text topic: Mapping of the Space Policies
Text author: Андрија Филиповић
The author considers politicity of installations and their topology. An installation, as much as any work of art in general, has its own exteriority, its interiority and its outside. The outside is determined as a virtual plane of immanence that grounds the categories of exteriority and interiority. The virtual is ground for the affectivity of an installation, which leads to consideration of the relation of virtual singularities and actualized state of affairs, the molecular and the molar. The politicity of installations lies in the cross section of the virtual and the actual, the molecular and the molar, the outside and the exteriority/interiority, the affect and the axiomatic of capitalism, and it offers potentially new ways of imagining different politics of the body and the subject.
