Description
The book’s close analyses demonstrate the aesthetic and formal aspects of literary and visual art that mediate between social relations to yield a dependence alterity, including the otherness of a precarious present, a menacing future beyond economic mastery, and an environment enmeshed with living beings and things.

‘Fictional Labor is a work of deep erudition that brings a wide spectrum of theoretical speculation to bear on formally inventive works of visual art and literature… Baek’s reflections on technology, neoliberalism, ethics, politics, and aesthetic form deliver a wealth of smart and ultimately auspicious insights that will encourage readers to imagine new ways of living—and of making art—as we forge ahead into a world unknown.’ Ari J. Blatt, L’Esprit Créateur
