Notes from the Field : Errors in Administration of an Excess Dosage of Yellow Fever Vaccine — United States, 2017

Abstract

The author discusses both the external and internal contingencies of the contemporary artist's creative situation. He argues that the role of the contemporary artist is to wage war against the dizzying crush of information and data of the digital world. He suggests that the natural minimalism of black-and-white works of art, such as line drawings, have the power to attack outward contingencies and counter mere accumulations of data.
