Violet Spurlock writes: The series takes its title from Adorno’s claim in Aesthetic Theory that art, instead of attempting to represent political antagonisms, ought to sublimate them into formal problems. I want to gather our attention around writers who challenge or respond to such a demand, writers whose work explores representation’s limits and enacts resistance and marginalization formally. I think these writers are making exciting interventions that navigate dual risks of cooptation and obscurity. I am very honored to help bring their work into conversation and hopeful that you’ll join us for these events.
