Çağdaş Sanatın Sahtekârlığı by Avelina Lésper
“We are living in a unique moment in art history. What we previously considered contemporary art has now transformed into an ideology, a dark conservatism that allows critics no questioning whatsoever. We are all familiar with some of the dogmas established by contemporary art theorists: Art is not created by works but by ideas; everyone is an artist; everything that an artist considers art is art; and of course, the curator is superior to the artist. Thanks to such an antithesis of diligence, concepts such as laziness, frivolity, and lack of intelligence have become values of this pseudo-art, and everything can be exhibited in museums. Objects presented as art without any aesthetic value are accepted in the way this dogmatism dictates, by completely submitting to the principles dictated by an authority.”
Without reservation Avelina Lésper, who attracts attention with her sincere style, examines the "unquestionable" dogmas of contemporary art ideology in The Deception of Contemporary Art and seeks an answer to this "difficult" question: Is contemporary art nothing but a deception?
