James Voorhies Boeken

"Establishes the postsensual turn in visual culture and curatorial work, which embraces research, publishing, and knowledge production as central tenets of the new global aesthetics"-- Provided by publisher

In Beyond Objecthood, Voorhies provides a clearly structured account of the evolution of context as the base of our aesthetic and political encounters with contemporary art. His account draws much-needed attention to the ways in which institutional habits and frames determine meaning in our encounter with an art object, and how key artists unsettle these habits to invoke critical power beyond the reach of much so-called political art'. - Catherine Wood, Senior Curator, International Art (Performance) Tate Modern, London
