Keywords: discourse of transition, contradiction between productive forces and relations of production, visual art, art collectives One practical problematic at our starting point will eventually lead us to a more abstract sphere of discussion: how do the art systems handle their contradictions The answer which I want to propose is that the contradictions of art systems are in most cases explained by the terms relating to the discourse of transition, and that these contradictions are handled through ideological solutions based on identity policies and psychological regulations. We can start this discussion by naming these contradictions. Maja Breznik in her paper “Cultural identities from the bottom up – labour relations policies”, which analyses the labour processes of book production and the position of the “author” in this process, wrote that elementary contradictions between two different types of revenue determine this relationship.
