🇬🇧 Peanuts minus Schulz : Distributed Labor as a Compositional Practice brings together a selection of comic strips home-brewed by over one thousand deskilled microworkers from twenty different countries commissioned through digital labor services. The operation consists in the reproduction of iconic comic strips using a number of variations devised by Ilan Manouach.

Artist and researcher Ilan Manouach advances conceptual comics as an artistic practice devised to disrupt the myth of the solitary genius and fictions of artistic ethos and integrity. Conceptual comics aims to distance source artworks to make the claim for an expanded agency, in this case for the sake of microworkers as a whole.

The operation Peanuts minus Schulz reveals the mechanisms at work behind creativity in the making and the potential of the art form in flux when it is informed by the peripheral vision of the interconnected precariat.

đŸ‡šđŸ‡”Â Peanuts minus Schulz : Le travail distribuĂ© comme pratique organisationnelle rassemble une sĂ©lection de comic strips confiĂ©s aux talents de plus d’un millier de micro-travailleurs de vingt pays diffĂ©rents par le biais de plates-formes digitales de distribution de travail. Le protocole consiste Ă  s’approprier et Ă  copier une bande-dessinĂ©e iconique en intĂ©grant des variantes Ă©laborĂ©es par Ilan Manouach.

Bouleversant l’autoritĂ© de l’industrie crĂ©ative, l’artiste et chercheur Ilan Manouach propose la bande-dessinĂ©e conceptuelle comme pratique artistique. Celle-ci vise Ă  mettre Ă  distance l’Ɠuvre source pour revendiquer une forme d’auctorialitĂ© Ă©largie, ici Ă  l’ensemble des micro-travailleurs.

L’opĂ©ration Peanuts minus Schulz rĂ©vĂšle les mĂ©canismes d’une crĂ©ativitĂ© en devenir et le potentiel de la forme artistique en flux lorsqu’elle est nourrie de la vision pĂ©riphĂ©rique d’un prĂ©cariat interconnectĂ©.
