Publisher's note

Following up on his acclaimed work The Future of the Image, Ranciere explores the meaning of critical art and suggests how we may overcome the potential trap of being a spectator. As passive spectators, he argues, we risk consumerist oppression and an upheaval of social relations. Suggesting a more active part in the process of observation, Ranciere reveals how we may affirm the status of spectatorship and build upon it. In our contemporary age of mass visual media, Ranciere's lucid perspective stands alone in a sea of trivializing critiques of spectacle.
