Abstract
Art is dying from commentary on art. Commentary invades everything - often, alas, to the detriment of the work. Supposed to be self-sufficient, the work can now only be appreciated when accompanied by a discourse. Worse : commentary has gone from being an accessory to becoming central - like the pillar of an art form that can hardly stand on its own, or that, if it fails to move, requires filters, screens and mediation to be felt.
