How can we situate the present moment within a pervasive and ongoing structure of colonial catastrophe? What is the function of aesthetic practice under such violent planetary arrangements and their unique contemporary mutations? How might these questions unravel the enduring constitutive relationships between liberalism, settler colonialism, and capitalist extractivism?

The concluding study session in this series will work from Elizabeth Povinelli’s scholarship in political economy, aesthetic philosophy, and Indigenous studies.
