_What does it mean to work in a system that does not run parallel to
your ideologies, but has the potential to? This can pertain to both
art institutions and the art world in general. __What is the strategy
and what's at stake when you're in a constant practice of subverting?_
ARTS.BLACK [http://arts.black] is a journal of art criticism from
Black perspectives predicated on the belief that art criticism should
be an accessible dialogue – a tool through which we question,
celebrate, and talk back to the global world of contemporary art. The
journal is edited by Taylor Renee and Jessica Lynne.
