Each of the five volumes in the Stone Art Theory Institutes series
brings together a range of scholars who are not always directly
familiar with one another's work. The outcome of each of these
convergences is an extensive and "unpredictable conversation" on
knotty and provocative issues about art. This fifth and final
volume in the series focuses on the identity, nature, and future of
visual studies, discussing critical questions about its history,
objects, and methods. The contributors question the canon of
literature of visual studies and the place of visual studies with
relation to theories of vision, visuality, epistemology, politics,
and art history, giving voice to a variety of inter- and
transdisciplinary perspectives. Rather than dismissing visual
studies, as its provocative title might suggest, this volume aims
to engage a critical discussion of the state of visual studies
today, how it might move forward, and what it might leave behind to
evolve in productive ways. The contributors are Emmanuel Alloa,
Nell Andrew, Linda Baez Rubi, Martin A. Berger, Hans Dam
Christensen, Isabelle Decobecq, Bernhard J. Dotzler, Johanna
Drucker, James Elkins, Michele Emmer, Yolaine Escande, Gustav
Frank, Theodore Gracyk, Asbjorn Gronstad, Stephan Gunzel, Charles
W. Haxthausen, Miguel A. Hernandez-Navarro, Tom Holert, Kivanc

Manghani, Anna Notaro, Julia Orell, Mark Reinhardt, Vanessa R.
Schwartz, Bernd Stiegler, Oyvind Vagnes, Sjoukje van der Meulen,
Terri Weissman, Lisa Zaher, and Marta Zarzycka.
