The event occurs in and over time; the aftermath concerns the
traces, which are frozen into images, objects, re-presentations.
Traditionally, art history is written in the aftermath as
representational. A different perspective on the visual arts is
opened up when scholars insist on exploring the status of the event
itself, allowing temporality to remain in place. By focusing on the
event, recognition of the complex character of the traces becomes
all the more evident, challenging the singularity of representation
itself. This book opens up debates on art history and theory to a
broad range of perspectives, offering fresh approaches to art
history and media culture alongside diverse investigations into
cross-cultural and non-Western art practices. The essays draw
together a wide and regionally diverse range of scholars from
numerous areas, including film and documentary studies, philosophy,
intellectual and cultural history, media theory and performance
studies, as well as art history and theory. -- .
