This first compilation of writings by art critic Jan Verwoert galvanizescentral themes he has been developing in pursuit of a language todescribe art's transformative potential in conceptual, performative andemotional terms. He analyzes the power of public gestures toconstitute communities as well as the pressure to perform that governsthe sphere of creative labor, in order to show how particular artistsperform gestures and invoke community differently. Exploring theemotional power games that shape social relations, Verwoert looks foran alternative ethos of action and feeling, asking: How can a modernistapproach to artistic form as a means of social critique be expandedto fully avow its subliminal affective undercurrents, and produce apleasurably crooked form of criticality in art and writing?
