ART AND WORK. ART AS WORK. ART WORK.

Abstract

This text intends to discuss some questions that are already announced in its title: 1) the relationship between Art and Work; 2) the relationship between Art as work; and 3) to discuss the work of Art. The three premises will be discussed from the borderline biogeographical critical decolonial thought in order to think, not only the Art and Labor relation as subjugated to the views of the current capitalist system, but it will also be, but I am more interested in discussing these three premises for the logical reason that it seems to me that current artists, teachers and researchers deal with art in this instance - art = labor - by two "consciences the first that art is a professional production that can save the subjects of art (artist, teacher and researcher, but also the subject fruitor of this one) while the second is observed as a form of sustenance of the subjects of art (teacher, artist and researcher), but without these being aware of the idea that in this logic art also ends up being subjugated to the same commercial systems (colonial/global) that the first consciousness claims to repudiate. Such questions will be treated from the logic of artist-teacher-researcher (therefore, practice-doctrine-criticism) of Art as inseparable.
