Description
Cartographies of the Absolute explores how artists, writers, and theorists have grappled with the concept of capital over the past few decades. This book examines the crises of representation that have accompanied the ongoing crisis of capitalism, highlighting new visions and artefacts that attempt to make sense of the vastness and complexity of abstract systems. The authors focus on the production of these new representations, which often involve wrestling with the invisibility and complexity of capitalist abstractions. By examining these disparate answers, Cartographies of the Absolute sheds light on the ways in which our lives are shaped by the systems that govern them. Through its analysis, this book offers a nuanced understanding of the relationship between art, theory, and capitalism, providing valuable insights for anyone interested in philosophy, aesthetics, or the ways in which we represent the world around us.
