Description

In "The Future of the Image", Jacques Ranciere develops a fascinating new concept of the image in contemporary art, showing how art and politics have always been intrinsically intertwined.

Covering a range of art movements, and thinkers such as Foucault, Deleuze, Adorno, Barthes, Lyotard and Greenberg, Ranciere argues that contemporary theorists of the image are suffering from religious tendencies.

He suggests that there is a stark political choice in art: it can either reinforce a radical democracy, or create a new reactionary mysticism.

For Ranciere there is never a pure art: the aesthetic revolution will always embrace egalitarian ideals.
