Résumé:

This book juxtaposes three distinct agents in the art world - the critics, curators and artists of its title - adopting the conversational form of three large-scale symposia that took place at Witte de With, Center for Contemporary Art, in the fall of 2008 and the spring of 2009. In addition to transcripts from selected dialogues and the outcomes of three guest-led workshops, it also contains spirited contributions that arrived from many of the participants in the months that followed the 'Rotterdam dialogues' opening another dimension of the discussions held in front of a large audience. At stake here are questions of cultural agency, audience and production, ranging from the concrete to the speculative.
