Publisher's Synopsis
'Ethical Materialities in Art and Moving Images' addresses the ethicality of relations between the art, the artist and their environment. It explores how ethics figure in the generation of art and images after modernism and postmodernism starting from the premise that in the Anthropocene the work cannot rest upon its separation from the world. From there, this volume develops new ethical thought that acknowledges art and film in their material and immaterial environment. Practitioners and theorists ask what ethicalities are at play in the relations between the human artist, the art, and the human and non-human models, participants or co-producers. They investigate the ethics of relations that generate works of art and film and consider artistic production as immanent to the relations of the world.
