Fred Moten

    Fred Moten je autorem klíčových děl, která se zabývají estetikou černošské radikální tradice, black art a společenským životem. Jeho psaní, často prolínající poezii a kritickou teorii, zkoumá témata jako je odpor, studium a vzpurnost. Motenův literární přístup je charakterizován hlubokým zapojením do kritických diskusí o umění a kultuře, čímž rozšiřuje chápání černošské zkušenosti a jejího vlivu na současné myšlení. Jeho práce vyzývá k novým způsobům vnímání a interpretace umění a společenských struktur.

      Stolen Life
    • This powerful collection highlights the importance of snapshots in Black American life: as tools to challenge stereotypes, and as a way to document family and culture Thoughtfully illustrated, this volume highlights a selection of photographs of African American family life between the 1970s and the early 2000s--pictures that were lost by their original owners and then found by the artist Zun Lee on a street in Detroit in 2012, marking the beginning of the Fade Resistance collection of more than 4,000 Polaroids. Lee describes the collection as an important record of Black visual self-representation and a means to "reflect the way Black people saw themselves on their terms--without the intention of being seen, or judged, by others." To Lee, these powerful photographs are an expression of "Black life mattering." These vivid images chronicle milestones such as weddings, birthdays and graduations, as well as quiet daily moments, offering contemporary views long ignored or erased by mainstream culture. Together, these works highlight the role snapshots have played in Black life, as tools to challenge stereotypical portrayals and as a means to memorialize family, culture and heritage. Topics such as self-representation, visual history and the social power of photographs are addressed in critical texts by Sophie Hackett, Stefano Harney, Zun Lee and Fred Moten, and an original contribution by celebrated poet Dawn Lundy Martin.

      What Matters Most: Photographs of Black Life
    • »The undercommons, its maroons, are always at war, always in hiding.« In drei Texten, drei Reden, drei Polylogen umkreisen und erweitern Stefano Harney und Fred Moten den Nicht-Ort dessen, was sie die Undercommons genannt haben, auf dem Weg zu einer »Alltagspraxis des Tuns und Schaffens, [...] einer (Per)Version des alten Griechischen Sinns von poiesis«. Dabei werden unterschiedlich starke Verbindungslinien zwischen objektorientierter Ontologie, Heideggers Phänomenologie, Marx' Warenbegriff, Franz Fanon und Frank B Wilderson III, sowie der Philosophie Nishida Kitarōs und vor allem den künstlerischen Arbeiten von Harold Mendez gezogen, die auf ebenso unterschiedliche Weise in die Begrifflichkeiten von Blackness, Sozialität und Undercommons einfließen.
