Anchored by Federici’s analysis of unpaid labor and capitalist accumulation, this text interrogates the entanglement of artistic labor, class struggle, and autonomy, tracing cultural work as both a site of exploitation and resistance. By Stevphen Shukaitis in @eflux.bsky.social buff.ly/CVlcZP7

I wrote about the 13th Berlin Biennale for @eflux.bsky.social www.e-flux.com/criticism/67...

FOR AN ECOLOGY OF IMAGES Peter Szendy via @eflux.bsky.social Can we—must we—put under the sign of an ecology of images our effort to exit the sphere of an anthropocentric iconomy, a portmanteau of “icon” and “economy? www.e-flux.com/notes/666036...

The films made by François Pain at La Borde psychiatric clinic—alongside Félix Guattari, among others—offer a more nuanced and ultimately more useful history of a much-mythologised experiment than the conventional hagiographies, writes Nicholas Gamso. www.e-flux.com/criticism/66...

If art history is “ghost stories for grown-ups,” as Aby Warburg claims, then the most enduring works of art might be those that cannot easily be recuperated into our existing versions of reality, write the editors of e-flux Criticism. www.e-flux.com/criticism/66...

Went to Kyiv for @eflux.bsky.social. People are tired, but the art is good. www.e-flux.com/criticism/66...

Sven's essay in the most recent e-flux is a really sharp historicization and appraisal of the various ways the concept of "forms of life" have been taken up. Generatively, he then discusses the censorship of and attacks on Palestinian solidarity in Germany: www.e-flux.com/journal/152/...

“Epic theater does not develop action but mirrors reality by making it strange (Verfremdung). Brecht’s theatrical images and captions, on the other hand, aim at ‘exorcizing their sensationalism.’” Worthwhile reading on Bertolt #Brecht as a visual artist. #collage #epictheater #eflux #bertoltbrecht
