The Value of Everything

Malik, Suhail. 2014. The Value of Everything. Texte zur Kunst, 93, pp. 66-79. [Article]
Copy

The affirmation of value over price assumed and instantiated in contemporary art (CA) through its constitutive sur-valuation cannot but be inclined towards pricing. Parochially, the art-market can then advance without hindrance across any instance of CA. More expansively, in bringing or adding value to everything while assuming that the indeterminacy of its sur-valuation negates or escapes pricing, CA is a transmission mechanism for the speculative pricing of everything, for universal financialization.
