Rather, art comes between the subject and the world, and any aesthetic discourse used to legitimize art must also necessarily serve to undermine it. Following his recent books Art Power and The Communist Postscript, in Going Public Boris Groys looks to escape entrenched aesthetic and sociological understandings of art—which always assume the position of the spectator, of the consumer. Let us instead consider art from the position of the producer, who does not ask what it looks like or where it comes from, but why it exists in the first place. 鮑里斯•格洛伊斯(Boris Groys),德國卡爾斯魯厄大學(Karlsruhe)藝術與媒體中心美學史、藝術史、媒體史教授,同時也是紐約大學的世界知名教授。
