%0 Journal Article %T Honesty with the real %A Marina Garc¨¦s %J Journal of Aesthetics & Culture %D 2012 %I Co-Action Publishing %R 10.3402/jac.v4i0.18820 %X This article explores the re-politization of art that is taking place nowadays, with the aim to go beyond the duality representation/transformation as the two activities of political art. It proposes the concept of ˇ°honesty with the realˇ±, as a way to think about art as a form of treatment. How do we handle reality and deal with reality? This question leads us to think about affect as a form of violence and to propose a new sense of engagement and intervention. %K political art %K engagement %K honesty %K affect %K intervention %K anonymity %U http://www.aestheticsandculture.net/index.php/jac/article/view/18820/22955
