Public Knowledge: Anteaesthetics with Rizvana Bradley, Larne Abse Gogarty, Vanessa Peterson, and Sadia Shirazi

Anteaesthetics challenges the notion that blackness can find a place within the

aesthetic framework of modernity, arguing instead that it forms both the foundation and the unresolvable paradox of representation. Drawing from diverse fields like black critical theory and art history, Anteaesthetics invites a philosophical engagement with black art and its inherent challenges to conventional artistic forms.
