Постколониалният дискурс и глобализацията на изкуството през 90-те години на ХХ век: източноевропейските художествени сцени
Postcolonial Discourse and Globalization of Art in the 1990s. The Case of East European Art Scenes

Summary/Abstract: From the 1990s onward, the issues of postcolonial discourse have served to formulate the problems of otherness which globalization has brought to the fore. Thus, the entry into the global art world turns out to be the post-socialist art scene entry into the postcolonial discourse of otherness. In the article hereby the author is trying to demonstrate the way in which two principally different discourses – the post-socialist one and the postcolonial one occur on the territory of the local-global. Although the otherness of post-socialist, East European cultures is closely related to that of the postcolonial, these artistic scenes resist the requirement of locality and diversity, opposing the idea of universality as a form of criticism.
