Event overview
Visual Cultures Public Programme Autumn 2018 – Bleeding Edges and Solvent Objects.
A discussion between Ramon Amaro, Dhanveer Singh Brar, and Louis Moreno kicks off this term’s programme that engages with questions of racial capitalism and planetary urbanisation.
Published in a 1971 issue of Savacou (the journal of the Caribbean Artists Movement), Sylvia Wynter’s essay ‘Novel and History, Plot and Plantation’ examined the form of the novel and the changing system of the plantation, and asked how far the racial apparatus of market expansion had penetrated the soil of the earth and the soul of the human. This question provides a framework for tonight’s discussion that will consider Wynter’s conceptualisation of the sociogenic principle, bodily being, racialisation and the human.
