Understanding society and its codes in order to show their conditioning nature through derision
Artists primarily driven by a desire to understand the ways in which the “system” (society and its codes, politics) conditions or seeks to condition our behavior and our appraisal of things. The artist derides certain aspects of the system in order to submit them to the critical scrutiny of the spectator. (Christian JANKOWSKI, Mark DION)

Human-scale, ‘vestige of the utopias’-type object
The artist creates a work that takes human scale into account, establishing a certain proximity with the spectator. Here, the proximity is reinforced by the vestigial aspect of Man’s disappointed dreams and abandonned projects. (Rachel WHITEREAD, Miroslaw BALKA)
