It seems essential to locate the specific determination of domination ...What are the effects of specific power relations on the production , recognition and validation of works of art? Contrary to humanist belief , art is not about human self expression per se but requires a market for its assertion as a commodity...Its ideological function is intrinsically bound up with its exchange level...The artist equally occupies a particular position which is complexly overdetermined by considerations of nationality , race , gender and class.
