Art in the Age of the Post-Medium Condition, by Joanna Slotkin

Krauss borrows the term “post-medium condition” from philosopher Stanley Cavell. However, she clarifies that this condition does mean the end of media. Rather, it signals the breakdown of traditional, a priori media (e.g., painting, sculpture) and opens the possibility for artists to invent new, specific media on a case-by-case basis.
