Narratives Unfolding
Somewhere between global and local, the nation still lingers as a concept. National art histories continue to be written – some for the first time – while innovative methods and practices redraw the boundaries of these imagined communities. Narratives Unfolding considers the mobility of ideas, transnationalism, and entangled histories in essays that define new ways to see national art in ever-changing nations. Examining works that were designed to reclaim or rethink issues of territory and dispossession, home and exile, contributors to this volume demonstrate that the writing of national art histories is a vital project for intergenerational exchange of knowledge and its visual formation...
Poetics of Liveliness
Can poetry act as an aesthetic amplification device, akin to a microscope, through which we can sense minute or nearly imperceptible phenomena such as the folding of molecules into their three-dimensional shapes, the transformations that make up the life cycle of a silkworm, or the vaporous movements that constitute the ever-shifting edges of clouds? We tend to think of these subjects as reserved for science, but, as Ada Smailbegović argues, twentieth- and twenty-first-century writers have intermingled scientific methodologies with poetic form to reveal unfolding processes of change. Their works can be envisioned as laboratories within which the methodologies of experimentation, natural his...

Lettuce Lettuce Please Go Bad
Lettuce, Lettuce, Please Go Bad is an incantation and a plea for transformation. Using the idea of compost as composition - since the organic process of recycling leaves, words, or food scraps into valuable fertilizer enriches both soil and human life - the book draws on divination systems, herbal healing rituals, the cycles of the moon, experiences of stress and grief, and inherited and invented agricultural practices to tease out the poetics of rural embodied language. Situated at the moment when thought become image, Lettuce, Lettuce, Please Go Bad expands on the author's personal history of familial migration and agricultural labour - picking, pruning, grafting, tending, planting - entangled in issues of colonization, land manipulation, ownership, extraction, and food production. In an effort to think through the ways vegetables, fruits, and other foods can stand in for complex situations and emotions, La Melia reconsiders how value is allotted and advocates a return to love to mitigate both personal and collective crisis.

El umbral de la sombra
«Una monumental y apasionante introducción a Giordano Bruno, donde literatura y pintura, filosofía y ciencia se entrecruzan en una perspectiva que vincula pasado y presente.» Ilya Prigogine, Premio Nobel de Química 1977 Del Candelero (1582) a los Furores (1585), el cruce entre filosofía, literatura y pintura constituye uno de los núcleos del pensamiento de Giordano Bruno (1548-1600). La serie de las siete «obras italianas» se abre con una comedia cuyo protagonista es un pintor-filósofo y se cierra con un diálogo en donde un filósofo-pintor pinta y comenta imágenes. Filosofar (el mito de la caverna) y pintar (el mito de los orígenes de la pintura) son para el Nolano partir de la...
