Ice Cores and Fossils and Cryogenics Oh My

I just wrote an essay for the upcoming exhibition by the magnificent Julian Charrière. Not difficult to do!

Julian's work reminds me of what Adorno says about art: that it does the violence to the world in an aesthetic key that society does to it in an all too palpable key. And in so doing displaces that violence.

Next up I'm introducing Olafur Eliasson's work in Stockholm.

It's fantastic for me to write and talk about art, because that is almost identical with what philosophy is, in my book.
