Publication by Mi You
The monograph "Art in a Multipolar World", written by Mi You, was published by Hatje Cantz on January 22, 2025.
The monograph looks at how the increasing global political multipolarity and the upheavals in geopolitics, economic and social policy affect the field of art. After a conceptual and theoretical introduction, Mi You turns to documenta fifteen as a first case study - an exhibition that can be seen as a crystallization point of current political shifts. As a second case study, she looks at Chinese art policy, which is currently oscillating between particularist and universalist claims. In conclusion, Mi You opens up a horizon for thought and experimentation that should help us to find our way in the age of multipolarity.
