Composed in a series of scenes, Aisthesis - Ranciere's definitive
statement on the aesthetic - takes its reader from Dresden in 1764
to New York in 1941. Along the way, we view the Belvedere Torso
with Winckelmann, accompany Hegel to the museum and Mallarme to the
Folies-Bergere, attend a lecture by Emerson, visit exhibitions in
Paris and New York, factories in Berlin, and film sets in Moscow
and Hollywood. Ranciere uses these sites and events - some famous,
others forgotten - to ask what becomes art and what comes of it. He
shows how a regime of artistic perception and interpretation was
constituted and transformed by erasing the specificities of the
different arts, as well as the borders that separated them from
ordinary experience. This incisive study provides a history of
artistic modernity far removed from the conventional postures of
modernism.
