In today’s ep, Matt Prewitt speaks with Victoria Ivanova, R&D Strategic Lead of Serpentine Arts and curator-strategist-writer, about the role art and culture have in society in preserving democratic ideals while offering critical and actionable solutions for the emerging technological era.They delve into the historical and present significance of art, its crisis of meaning in the age of accelerationism and powerful AI, and the potential for Plural Property (Partial Common Ownership) to create a more fair and dynamic market for art; thereby rethinking art ownership and promoting a more equitable future. This conversation and the collaboration between RadicalxChange and Serpentine Arts offer new perspectives on the intersection of art, technology, and society.Links: Rethinking Art Ownership (blog post) by Paula Berman, Victoria Ivanova, & Matt PrewittRethinking Art Ownership (audio version)Rethinking Art Ownership (video version - audio + text)References:6:04 Gustave Courbet (French painter leading the Realism movement)7:00 Uncle Tom's Cabin (1852) anti-slavery novel by American author and abolitionist Harriet Beecher Stowe7:01 A Sportsman's Sketches (1852) collection of Russian realist short stories by Russian novelist, poet, and playwright Ivan Turgenev8:54 Italian Futurism12: 45 Salon des Refusés14:52 French painter and sculptor Marcel Duchamp’s "Fountain" (Duchamp, 1917)15:54 Conceptual art24:51 Nick Land (English philosopher and theorist)Accelerationism26:03 Nick Srnicek (Canadian writer and academic) and Dr. Alex Williams (British political theorist and lecturer)Manifesto for an Accelerationist Politics27:11 Ursula K.
