Description
Laruelle and Art: The Aesthetics of Non-Philosophy
Jonathan Fardy explores the unique contribution of French philosopher François Laruelle to aesthetic theory, focusing on his 'non-aesthetic' project. This approach allows Laruelle to think about art outside standard philosophical boundaries.
Fardy examines the work of artists such as Julia Margaret Cameron, Anish Kapoor, Dan Flavin, and James Turrell, as well as the drama of Michael Frayn, to illustrate how Laruelle's thinking can open up new perspectives on art and criticism.
