Terra e museu - local ou global
No presente texto - escrito quando da realização da exposição francesa Magiciens de la Terre, em 1987 - Guy Brett critica o conceito "globalizante" de arte ocidental, centrado sobre os noções de autonomia da arte no meio social e do artista como gênio criador isolado, bem como a ação de grandes instituições, museus e companhias comerciais, que manipulam esse conceito de maneira a fornecer ao público uma apresentação alienada e descontextualizada …
