WACQUANT, Loïc. Mapping the artistic field. Sociologia, Problemas e Práticas [online]. 2005, n.48, pp.115-121. ISSN 0873-6529.
This article dissects Bourdieus notion of artistic field as a means for explicating his distinctive approach to aesthetics and to map out the generic features and implications of the concept of field. The relational idea of field was developped over three decades to revoke the opposition between internalist and externalist analyses of artistic practices and products. It designates a self-governing arena of action that operates at once as a space of objective forces and a terrain for struggle over forms of competency and authority. Field analysis is at once genetic and structural: it entails drawing a topology of pertinent positions, tracing the habitus of active agents, identifying the sources and degree of autonomy that endows the field with its prismatic capacity to select and refract external influences and thereby shape interactions according to its own morphology and history.
