Thinking Through Painting: Reflexivity and Agency Beyond the Canvas

Painting has demonstrated remarkable perseverance in the expanding field of contemporary art and the surrounding ecology of media images. It appears, however, to have dispelled its own once-uncontested material basis: no longer confined to being synonymous with a flat picture plane hung on the wall, today, painting instead tends to emphasize the apparatus of its appearance and the conduits of its circulation. With contributions by Peter Geimer, Isabelle Graw, and Andr Rottmann, Thinking through Painting investigates painting's traits and reception in cultural and socioeconomic discourse.
