The lecture explores the history and concept of ‘global art’ through its indexing of
migration and crisis. Focussing on the work of Suzanne Cesaire and others, it examines how art is mediated by and resists
the violences at play in geographies of dispossession, and the reproductive abstract logics of gender and ‘race’.
Dr. Rose-Anne Gush is currently Assistant Professor at IZK - Institute for Contemporary Art
at TU Graz. Her research interests include political aesthetics and theories of ‘global art’, the relationships between colonialism,
fascism and capitalism, and gender and ecology. Her recent articles are published in
Berlin Review, FKW // Zeitschrift

Her first monograph,
Artistic Labour of the Body, is forthcoming in the Historical Materialism book series with Brill
