| Descripción: | This paper analyses the artwork Axioma (2013) of the contemporary Costa Rican artist known as Habacuc. The present text is an essay that analyse a contemporary artwork from a “limited interpretation”, by methodological decision. The media phenomenon is going to be studied from a Communication Sciences perspective. Axioma broke into the agenda of various news websites, which in context of the electoral truce and foreseeing the possible curiosity generated by a note on Habacuc and a new art project relative to a dog, headlines were irresponsibly shared instead of confirm the information. Consequently, the media created a truth and they (mis) informed thousands of people, those within hours were asking for the artist’s head. |
