Negative Space: Orbiting Inner and Outer Experience

Contributors: Theodor W. Adorno, Daniel Colucciello Barber, Lorna Brown, Elena Filipovic, Antonia Hirsch, Francois Laruelle, Olaf Nicolai, Ana Teixeira Pinto, Lisa Robertson, and Wolfgang Winkler. Editor: Antonia Hirsch.

Expanding from the exhibition Negative Space, this lateral publication of seven conversations and reprinted texts engages topics such as August Strindberg’s Celestographs as “inner truth,” Kantian correlationism vis-a-vis “nothing,” boredom, the ellipse as a figure connecting Kepler and Warburg’s understanding of cosmos, the studio and the gallery as the inner and outer space of artistic practice, mathematics’ ideological abstraction, free time, and the blackness of the universe.
