Summary:
In our current era of global pandemic and violent political upheaval, the question must be asked: What is our future and whose voices will announce it? These can only be situated voices, each with its own body and space, formed through dialogue within their own communities and in reaction and resistance to dominant discourses. Museum director, curator, and writer Zdenka Badovinac argues that these situated voices of people, artworks, and exhibitions, rooted in the local, can bring incisive, productive change. The call of these voices, in rethinking art, curation, and institutions, is the subject of this powerful essay.

Summary:
Pour Hugo Séguin, le mouvement environnemental a perdu ses repères. En montrant combien plusieurs idées radicales d’hier nous apparaissent tout à fait banales aujourd’hui, l’auteur identifie les mécanismes qui étouffent leur diffusion en tant qu’innovations bénéfiques. Se définissant comme un environnementaliste plutôt conservateur, il lance un appel au rapprochement(...)

En montrant combien plusieurs idées radicales d’hier nous apparaissent tout à fait banales aujourd’hui, l’auteur identifie les mécanismes qui étouffent leur diffusion en tant qu’innovations bénéfiques. Se définissant comme un environnementaliste plutôt conservateur, il lance un appel au rapprochement entre environnementalistes réformateurs, qu’il invite à s’ouvrir aux idées nouvelles, et radicaux, à qui il propose le beau risque de réinvestir les structures de pouvoir. Prônant un renforcement du dialogue social, il interpelle finalement décideurs et influenceurs à s’ouvrir aux porteurs de solutions innovantes qui frappent aujourd’hui à leurs portes.

Summary:
In this book, Craig Leonard argues for the contemporary relevance of the aesthetic theory of Herbert Marcuse—an original member of the Frankfurt School and icon of the New Left—while also acknowledging his philosophical limits. His account reinvigorates Marcuse for contemporary readers, putting his aesthetic theory into dialogue with antiracist and anti-capitalist activism. Leonard emphasizes several key terms not previously analyzed within Marcuse's aesthetics, including defamiliarization, anti-art, and habit. In particular, he focuses on the centrality of defamiliarization—a subversion of common sense that can be a means to the development of what Marcuse refers to as “radical sensibility.”

Design, atmosphere, and usage can make every new building relate to its local surroundings. As a design process, this contextual expansion does not simply imitate the urban pattern, but also interprets what is already there, to some extent modernizes it, makes the familiar alien by employing unusual atmospheric imagery, and ultimately transforms the accumulated chaos of soloists into an orchestrated whole.

Kester traces the origins of these works in the conceptual art and feminist performance art of the 1960s and 1970s and draws from the writings of Mikhail Bakhtin, Jürgen Habermas, and others as he explores the ways in which these artists corroborate and challenge many of the key principles of avant-garde art and art theory.
