## III. Non-examples

Art that merely depicts or explores autonomy is not autonomous art. Art that explores and foregrounds autonomy itself is typically conceptual in nature, but autonomous art is not merely a form of conceptual art. We can imagine autonomous art whose autonomy is merely incidental to its material, aesthetic, or technical execution. And we can imagine a day when all art becomes autonomous for reasons of mere convenience, when autonomy becomes part of the legal and technical infrastructure of art.
