The Radicant

The Radicant

If modernity warrants a return to the origin of art, then French curator
and art critic Nicolas Bourriaud is right when he claims that this is the
time to redefine the concept of -what is modern. Our century's
modernity will be invented, precisely, in opposition to all radicalism,
claims Bourriaud. So then, being radicant - from the Latin origin of
- roots - means setting one's roots in motion, transplanting behaviors,
and exchanging ideas rather than imposing them. Looking at the world
through his globalized prism of art, Bourriaud sketches a world art
criticism in which works are in constant dialog with the context from
which they reproduced.
