Conventionally, artists gather physical materials which become the object of the change they affect. Through this transformation in the physicality, the object becomes imbued with content, information and meaning from the artist. This has been the convention of art-making, ingrained within the aesthetic taste of laymen. However, modern didactic art comes along and teaches us that the changes that artists affect are not confined to that within ‘material entities’. Instead, it broadens the interpretation of the artists’ medium. The awareness of content shifts from tangible into intangible, representational into the abstract. It is a shift which signifies the realization that material is a mere appearance of the thing of importance: the ‘relations between people and between people and components of their environment’. The artwork cannot be considered in isolation from this. Society and its mechanics provide the structure within which material expressions take shape, thus to direct the effect of change towards the former would be appropriate. The role of artists cannot be removed from the political system and its conditions and must act as a receptor and reactor, as a voice of current sentiments. Such a connection in one’s position must find its way to the artists’ mode of production as well, which must be reconciled as best as possible with the current mode of production prevalent in society.
