Black Art and Aesthetics: Relationalities, Interiorities,
Reckonings comprises an array of essays, poems, and interviews, and
over 50 images from artists and writers including Angela Y. Davis,
Theaster Gates, Vijay Iyer, Isaac Julien, George E. Lewis, Sarah
Elizabeth Lewis, Meleko Mokgosi, Wangechi Mutu, Nell Painter, Kevin
Quashie, Claudia Rankine, Paul C. Taylor, Kara Walker, and Mabel O.
Wilson. The stellar contributors practice Black aesthetics by
engaging intersectionally with class, queer sexuality, female
embodiment, dance vocabularies, coloniality, Afrodiasporic music,
Black post-soul art, Afropessimism, and more. Black aesthetics thus
restores aesthetics to its full potential by encompassing all forms
of sensation and imagination in art, culture, design, everyday
life, and nature and by creating new ways of reckoning with
experience, identity, and resistance. Highlighting wide-ranging
forms of Black aesthetics across the arts, culture, and theory,
Black Art and Aesthetics: Relationalities, Interiorities,
Reckonings provides an unprecedented view of a field enjoying a
global resurgence. Black aesthetics materializes in communities of
artists, activists, theorists, and others who critique racial
inequities, create new forms of interiority and relationality,
uncover affective histories, and develop strategies for social
justice.
