A ‘counter-discourse’ of speculative approaches to art historySituated at the interface of philosophy, aesthetics and art history, this collection brings together a series of creative responses to the recent speculative turn in Continental philosophy. It gives you both a genealogy of speculative art history and a provocatively experimental counter-discourse of new speculative art histories.The contributors include philosophers, art historians, architects and art practitioners who go beyond the mere complementarity of philosophy and art history. They are generous with the types of art they examine, including architecture, cinema, dance and new media, and the philosophical trajectories they engage with.Published in association with Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, RotterdamContributorsArmen Avanessian, Free University Berlin, Germany.
