Abstract
The popularity of art biennials has been taken as proof of the collapse of the concept of the centre and its peripheries, supposedly replaced by a more global, democratic and decolonialised art world. Drawing on data from documenta between 1968 and 2007, this paper explores the power implications of such art exhibitions with reference to the artists who are their lifeblood.
