Event overview
Objects and Relations
Within the theoretical humanities there has recently been a resurgence of interest in objects and objectivity – often pitched against those ontologies that are more relational. Of course, it might be said that an interest in objects has always been a concern of art history and practice (not least contemporary practice) – and that ideas of a ‘relational aesthetics’ have, for some time now, been a dominant trend in art theory. The Autumn term Visual Cultures Public Programme uses these latest developments in philosophy and art as a point of departure for a series of talks from thinkers and artists that might be said to connect with, parallel, pre-date or critique what has come to be known as the ‘speculative turn’.
