Description The article focuses on the relation between critical art and critical curation in the context of globalization and precarisation as the two phenomena typical for the post-fordist economy and wide-spread neo-liberalism. The important aspects of the analysis of this relationship are dismantling of the art autonomy by artists themselves and institutional critique as the praxis in which positions of artists and curators merge. The article is the outcome of the analysis of a discourse of collaborative art that makes part of the research within research grant GAČR Art as collaboration.
