Back to front histories and the ‘return’ of the little known

This is the fourth lecture in a series of four by Adrian Rifkin, Professor of Art Writing, in association with Goldsmiths’ MFA in Art Writing. Rifkin takes up Jaques Ranciere’s notion of the ‘aesthetic regime of art’ to explore possibilities of an aesthetic regime of writing on art, and the consequences of art writing for other practices.

MFA Art Writing at Goldsmiths’ is a programme for practitioners who want to develop work that addresses art as writing, writing as art, and writing about art.
