Detailed Description

Altermodernism is a term coined by British curator Nicolas Bourriaud to describe a mode of cultural production and exchange characterized by its focus on contemporary art practices that engage with the “altermodern” condition. This condition is marked by a questioning of the modernist legacy and its attendant narratives of progress and universalization, as well as a rejection of the postmodernist embrace of irony and pastiche. In its place, altermodernism proposes a renewed engagement with the real and the material, a commitment to social and political engagement, and a willingness to experiment with form and content. Altermodernism has its roots in the work of a number of late-20th-century artists and thinkers who sought to challenge the received wisdom of the modernist project. These include the Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben, the French sociologist Bruno Latour, and the British artist and writer Grayson Perry. Altermodernism has been taken up by a number of artists working in a variety of media. These include the British artist Liam Gillick, who has created a number of installations that engage with the altermodern condition; the French artist Philippe Parreno, who has explored the potential of the altermodern in a number of film and video works; and the American artist Cory Arcangel, who is known for his work with found objects and appropriated images. Altermodernism has also been the subject of a number of exhibitions, most notably “Altermodern”, a 2009 show curated by Bourriaud at the Tate Modern in London. This exhibition brought together a number of international artists working in a variety of media, and sought to explore the altermodern condition through their work. Famous altermodern artists include Liam Gillick, Philippe Parreno, and Cory Arcangel.
