Putting into practice another idea of cultural democratization : the “panier culture” case

Abstract

New social structurations emerge so as
to respond to the stakes of democratization which cross the cultural sector. They
intend to revive democratic values
through the use of the Internet. The case
of an art short-chain-value created in
2011 allows us to question the role of the
Internet in the working out of activities
created both by artists and a public. The
Internet is a media which operates all
along a continuum of places: public,
open, closed, interpersonal. The description of the way this “culture-basket” functions induces that difficulties having
democratization at stake are located at
the interfaces of these different places
