The Entartete Kunst exhibition always remind me of how powerful Art is
as tool to perform changes. The gaze which the artists look at the
world is a layer of meaning coming from the subconscient, from a kind
of realm where reality becomes more complex and intricate than the one
seen by others. It is maybe the thing people call "inspiration", the
Musae or the Gods intervention.
ISIS march through Lybia, another country deep derranged since the US
and their allies topppled Gaddafi , tells about that as well. Their
warfare is not ruled by the book, neither Geneva convention or any
convention obliged them to follow any rules. Iraq and Lybias lack of
intern cohesion since Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi disappeared, gives
ISIS a fertile field for operations in the name of a diffuse caliphate
as the word has not seen since Bagdad and Damascus ruled the world.
ISIS are deeply anachronic, their voices comes from the ancient ages
where states and modernity were not the norm. They are totally
postmodern in their idea of a fragmented world where small tribale
enclaves in a loose confederation gestionate themselves in a kind of
autogestion.
To me is Hakim Bey again, with his idea of TAZ, Temporay Autonomous
Zone, very similar to the almost feodal kingdoms of the buccaneers
carving their fiefs in the Caribean islands.
