- Abstract
The demands for sustainable development are also a challenge for contemporary art, which is confronted by the alternative of how to preserve its particular artistic quality in the face of the sustainable, ecological paradigm that involves numerous restrictions for which free choice, diversity of forms, approaches and movements, as well as a disregard for restrictions and prohibitions are essential. Ecological art with a low carbon footprint or without it is only one of the responses to initiatives coming into art from outside because in art there are also autonomous tendencies towards environmentally friendly movements and forms that emerged long before the current general trend towards ecology. The production of art only exceptionally causes large amounts of carbon pollution compared to other social subsystems and the imposition of a circular economy in art through recycling, minimalisms and conceptualisms is controversial because this interferes with the artistic quality of the artworks themselves. Recycling, the use of already realised works, pastiches and re-enactments are already part of artistic momentum and life, so generalising these principles would mean postmodernising all art and thus impoverishing it.
