This issue is a special collaboration between Rhinoceros and Centre des arts actuels Skol (Montreal).<\/strong><\/p>\n

Even the most cursory inspection of our contemporary artworlds provides unassailable evidence: art, and what is somewhat disingenuously referred to as art-\u201ccritical\u201d discourse, are in the throes of an epistemological, axiological and ultimately ontological crisis the likes of which they have not undergone since the Renaissance. Whether one cares to dismiss it as ephemeral or to suffer it as disorienting, there is no getting around the depth and breadth of the crisis which current critical theory finds itself particularly ill-equipped to analyse or even acknowledge. So what does it do? It continues on as if all were well\u2026 This issue of Livraison on the other hand \u2013 taking its cue and title from SKOL\u2019s 2006-07 programming, while avoiding becoming its catalogue raisonn\u00e9 \u2013 seeks to give a more tonic resonance to that eminently ambivalent jibe. In other words, instead of futile hand-wringing about our cruel loss of bearings or jumping on the cynical bandwagon, the pages of this issue \u2013 in keeping with the spirit of SKOL\u2019s programme \u2013 take the position that the crisis is one of joy, and rich in potential.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
