漢斯．哈克（1936－）是西方藝術史上探索文化政冶最深入透徹的藝術家之一。自1960年代末期至今，他以攝影、油畫、裝置、文字論述針對文化和政治的複雜關係，表現深刻的洞察和批判，並且以多元的題材和手法，剖析當代藝術的權力結構和政治經濟學。本文運用藝術家訪談和寫作等第一手資料，參考博物館學、傳播學、社會學的論述，分析哈克如何以豐富的圖像和文字，呈現對於藝術機制、企業贊助、美國共和黨政府、納粹歷史、言論自由等議題的長期探索。

Hans Haake is one of the few artists in the history of western art to make profound and comprehensive inquiries into cultural politics. Since the late 1960's, through photography, oil painting, installations in various visual styles, he has been exploring the complex relationships between culture and politics and analyzing many topical issues concerning the political economy of contemporary art. This paper uses the artist's interviews and writings as primary sources and considers the relevant discourses of muselology, communications, and sociology. It discusses how the artist, using images and words, presents his long-term inquiry into such areas as the art institution, corporate sponsorship, American Republican politics, Nazi history, and free speech.
