How do we write and think about poetry and visual art in the wake
of postmodernism? Questions like this are central to poetry and
art, especially when taught within an academic context. Another
Future is a collection of critical essays on contemporary poetry,
art, culture, and politics that investigates the current state of
these fields by bringing together writings on the work of a number
of poets and visual artists. Reading the social poetically and
poetry socially, Gilbert illuminates poetic and artistic practices
in the present and creates a new discourse for thinking beyond
postmodernism. Both meticulous and comprehensive, Another Future
makes an important contribution to the critical discussion of
contemporary poetry and cultural aesthetics.
Essays cover authors, artists, and topics such as the Barbie
Liberation Organization, Anselm Berrigan, Brenda Coultas,
documentary aesthetics, Benjamin Friedlander, globalization,
Andreas Gursky, Renee Gladman, Kevin Killian, David LaChapelle,
