For an Ecology of Images

＂Against the disposable rapidity demanded by digital media, Szendy emphasizes the labor and time required for images to develop and come into view＂--

Peter Szendy is David Herlihy Professor of Humanities and Comparative Literature at Brown University, and one of the most prominent French philosophers writing today. His many books survey the interplay between aesthetic culture and economics, and include All Ears: The Aesthetics of Espionage and Phantom Limbs: On Musical Bodies. In 2020, he curated an exhibit at the Musée du Jeu de Paume in Paris, Le supermarché du visible.
