The functional frame of art journalism [Articol]

Abstract

This article reveals the fact that Art journalism is a process that requires the simultaneous aggregation and achievement of some of specific activities, thereby giving society certain functions. They derive, on the one hand, from the specificity of the AJ and, on the other hand, from the general functions of the media: ofinformation, interpretation, socialization, entertainment and, of course, cultural. Due to its specificity, art journalism has generated a series of derivative functions, characteristic only to it, the most relevant ones being: promoting culture, forming culture and promoting cultural dialogue.
