In this collection of essays, art historian and critic Sven Lütticken focuses on aesthetic practice in a rapidly expanding cultural sphere. He analyzes its transformation by the capitalist cultural revolution, whose reshaping of art's autonomy has wrought a field of afters and posts. In a present moment teeming with erosions - where even history and the human are called into question - 'Cultural revolution: aesthetic practice after autonomy' reconsiders these changing values, for relegating such notions safely to the past betrays their possibilities for potential today. Lütticken discusses practices that range from Black Mask to Subversive Aktion, from Krautonomy to Occupy, from the Wet Dream Film Festival in the early 1970s to Jonas Staal's recently established New World Academy. Within these pages Scarlett Johansson meets Paul Chan, Walid Raad, and Hito Steyerl, and Dr. Zira from Planet of the Apes mingles with the likes of Paul Lafargue and Alexandre Kojève.

Artists and writers consider a tactical desertion from the "culture wars"--a refusal to be distracted, an embrace of the emancipatory understanding of culture. Deserting from the Culture Wars reflects upon and intervenes in our current moment of ever-more polarizing ideological combat, often seen as the return of the "culture wars." How are these culture wars defined and waged Engaging in a theater of war that has been delineated by the enemy is a shortcut to defeat. Getting out of the reactive mode that produces little but a series of Pavlovian responses, this book proposes a tactical desertion from the culture wars as they are being waged today--a refusal to play the other side's war games, an unwillingness to be distracted. The volunteer troops in the culture wars are often given marching orders by professional masters of propaganda. What, then, might artists and others who are professionally engaged with images and imaginaries, with narratives and assemblies, have to contribute to the collective discovery of different modes of living culture Far from limiting the performance of culture to a one-sided speech act, an emancipatory understanding of culture needs to conceive of speech as embodied and intersubjective--as a collective performance. Contributors Bini Adamczak, Kader Attia, Rose Hammer, Tom Holert, Sven Lütticken, Diana McCarty, Dan McQuillan, Johannes Paul Raether, Natascha Sadr Haghighian, Jonas Staal.

Fransje Killaars is internationally renowned for her installations of brightly coloured textiles. She refers to her hand-woven carpets, blankets and collection of coloured fabrics as the 'alphabet' that she draws upon to create her installations. Killaars is fascinated by the power of colour, the relationship between people and textiles and the ways textiles are bound up with daily life. Until 1994 she worked as a studio assistant for Sol LeWitt. In addition to her autonomous installations, Killaars has made a name for herself with commissions for the public domain. These are often impressive room-filling installations and wall hangings with the horizontal layers of fabric typical of her work and inspired by the principle of fabric swatch books. This commissioned work includes the Herenkamer at the Catshuis, the lobby of the Netherlands Foundation for Visual Arts, Design and Architecture and the foyer of the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science.
