Anti imperialism and Radical AestheticsA masterclass and participatory laboratory with Prof Gabriel Rockhill
A philosopher, writer, and cultural critic. Director of the Critical Theory Workshop/Atelier de Théorie Critique, and former Directeur de programme at the Collège International de Philosophie. Rockhill is the editor of Domenico Losurdo's books in English.
Rather than understanding politics and art as two spheres separated by an insurmountable divide or linked by a privileged bridge, Rockhill demonstrates through historical and materialist analysis that they are not fixed categories with a singular relation, but rather social practices and "concepts in struggle." In books like Radical History & the Politics of Art and Interventions in Contemporary Thought:
History, Politics, Aesthetics, he departs from extant philosophical debates on what is called "art" and "politics" in the name of a radically historicist analysis of the political dimensions inherent in the modes of production, circulation, and reception of aesthetic practices. Engaging with an array of intellectual, artistic, and political traditions, Rockhill's work maps interactions between aspects of aesthetic and political practices as they intertwine and sometimes merge in fields of struggle.
