American public intellectual Mark Dery is discussing the current state of cultural criticism.

Read from, and riffing on, his essays on the life and art of Jean-Michel Basquiat and Winslow Homer’s The Gulf Stream, an iconic painting of a Black man adrift on a wreck, encircled by sharks (and submerged meanings), cultural critic Mark Dery will use these artists and their work to think aloud about the ways in which our historical moment—any historical moment—makes the past gothically, hauntologically present: the Shock of the Old.
