Reviews
'They show how open the discussions still are as to how to write the aesthetic,affective event in both a descriptive and a transformative way.It's a document of an exciting,transitional time.' Lauren Berlant, University of Chicago, author of Cruel Optimism 'This exciting,important collection offers ethical,politically urgent possibilities for multiple feminist engagements with artistic and cultural practices,suggesting alternative sensorial modalities -hearing,smell,feeling and touch-through which to reconfigure aesthetic encounters.' Jill Dolan, Princeton University, author of Utopia in Performance and The Feminist Spectator as Critic 'Carnal Aesthetics is a must have for anyone interested in phenomenological issues of identification, visuality, affect,meaning and value in visual culture, the politics of art and the ethics of interpretation.' Amelia Jones, McGill University, author of Seeing Differently 'Carnal Aesthetics contains a great number of exciting essays by a felicitous mix of established and emerging scholars.It offers a palette of visions and of artworks worth collecting like pearls that,strung together,open up the domain of art to approaches closer to experience than to past conventions.' Mieke Bal, cultural analyst and video artist, University of Amsterdam
