Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. He has been regarded with suspicion by some, as an anti-postmodernist who dared to write about unfashionable concepts such as truth and meaning. But in recent years, the philosopher Alain Badiou has risen in prominence, pioneering new ways to produce, conceptualise and discover art. Badiou Reframed is an original book about an original thinker which applies - for the first time - Badiou's philosophy to the visual arts. The six central concepts of this philosophy - 'being and appearing', 'event and subject' and 'truth and ethics' - are elucidated through detailed analysis of a range of visual artworks, including Marcel Duchamp's readymades, the abstract paintings of Kazimir Malevich and Mark Rothko, Banksy's contemporary street art, the sculpture of Alberto Giacometti, Stephane Mallarme's visual poetry and Victor Fleming's classic film The Wizard of Oz. In focusing on Badiou's critical relationship with the visual arts, Alex Ling reinterprets and represents not only the man, but art itself.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. We live in scandalous times. Every day some new controversy demands our attention, our emotional investment, and, ultimately, our judgment. Many of these routine transgressions will be understood in revelatory terms, as peeling back the multiple layers of artifice and spin to reveal an underlying, and oftentimes disturbing, truth. Otherswill be recognized as calculated marketing exercises that simply present the strategic face of contemporary capitalism.Yet these ordinary scandals can themselves be seen to be largely derivative of another, altogether more fundamentaland fundamentally rareform of disruption. Such is the real scandal that accompanies instances of authentic creation. Building on the philosophy of Alain Badiou, Scandalous Times not only argues the case for such real scandal, but also shows how it is today being abrogated and substituted through the increasing production of novel forms of state-sanctioned controversy.From Duchamp to Donald Trump, Scandalous Times explores the ways in which areas from art and advertising to politics and social media have come to actively contribute to this static fabrication of controversy, all the while arguing for the need to rethink creativity as a radical exception to the state, and not its proxy.
