Anthropology and discourses on global art

Autor(en)

Thomas Fillitz

Abstrakt

The notion of 'global art' acknowledges that there are major changes in the art worlds-network, and refers to new concepts of contemporary art and art worlds. The anthropology of art, however, has participated in a limited way in these art theoretical debates, although it could fruitfully contribute to them. This article discusses one major issue of global art using three ethnographic examples from Francophone West Africa: how to analyse the local specificity of contemporary art?
