It was only a matter of time before the speculative turn in the theoretical humanities reached the rarefied halls of Art History. But here, in this creative and rigorous collection, such an encounter is also seen to be prefigured within the speculative impulses of Art History itself. The essays in this timely volume then perform a twin function: they attend to object-orientated philosophies, anti-correlationist aesthetics and the non-human; but also to that rich counter-tradition of Art History that has always attended to art’s own speculative and inventive becomings. A must read for anyone interested in both the future and other pasts of Art History, but also for those working within the expanded fields of art theory and Contemporary Art.
