In The Future of the Image, Jacques Rancière develops a fascinating new concept of the image in contemporary art, showing how art and politics have always been intrinsically intertwined. He argues that there is a stark political choice in art: it can either reinforce a radical democracy or create a new reactionary mysticism. For Rancière there is never a pure art: the aesthetic revolution must always embrace egalitarian ideals.
Jacques Rancière is Emeritus Professor of Philosophy at the University of Paris-VIII. His books include Aisthesis, On the Shores of Politics, Hatred of Democracy and The Emancipated Spectator.
