‘Meaning’ then does not reside in the artwork but in its performance, its dissemination/ dispersal across multiple contexts, which continually reactivates (and subverts or destabilises) the work.
The idea of dissemination (…) provides a generative focus for a sustained enquiry into contemporary arts practices: what constitutes the artwork (as a dynamic process)? and how does the artwork provide meanings in relation to the contexts that it participates in and moves through? How can we generate, understand and curate artwork as a dynamic, fluid, event-based phenomenon?
