Zusammenfassung:In 2002, Bell published the critical essay Bell's Theorem, which addresses the colonial structures of the art world and argues for the right of self-determination of Aboriginal artists within it. This theoretical framework shapes the basis for a series of paintings, including works with the texts Aboriginal Art, It's a White Thing and Western Art Does Not Exist. Bell's paintings offer a sobering reflection on the realities of the inner-workings of the art world: white experts determine the criteria for what counts as 'Aboriginal Art'. Especially for this exhibition, the Van Abbemuseum is publishing a new essay by the artist, entitled Bell's Theorem (Reductio ad Infinitum)
