Mark Bradford’s Social Abstraction: Collision of Concepts, Gaps in Form, and the Mechanism of Institutional Consumption ― The Unstable Space Produced by Contradictory Ideas
Bradford’s work is often packaged under the label of “social abstraction.” Yet this term directly contradicts the foundations of abstraction itself and functions more as a sanitized institutional rhetoric that half-erases its ethical and political implications. Abstraction was historically built on removing narrative and context, but Bradford’s surfaces contain direct traces of specific racial, class, and urban structures.

Today’s art market operates on a vast speculative structure camouflaged by the language of “investment.” Artworks are no longer read as products of emotion or thought; instead, they are interpreted as indicators of price volatility. Galleries function with the logic of asset management firms, artists supply brand value, and collectors behave like market analysts.
