The Avant-Garde under "Post-" Conditions

Évaluation du livre

En savoir plus sur le livre

The question at the heart of these sixteen essays—alternately theoretically demanding, impishly elusive, stylistically impacted, and wholly absorbing—is this: what, in the context of contemporary politico-aesthetic practices, is the avant-garde, and how, if at all, can some version of it continue to exist in a historical moment when ... everything is permitted, hence nothing is any longer possible? Avant-Post engages the question of whether or not avant-garde practice remains viable under the prevailing conditions of a whole series of "post-" ideologies, from Post-Modernism and Post-Structuralism, to Post-Historicism, Post-Humanism and Post-Ideology itself.
