Annette Gilbert: “Literature’s Elsewheres. On the Necessity of Radical Literary Practices”. Cambridge, Mass.: MIT Press 2022.
What is a literary work? In “Literature’s Elsewheres”, Annette Gilbert tackles this question by deploying an extended concept of literature, examining a series of diverse, radical, experimental works from the 1950s to the present that occupy the liminal zone between art and literature.
She examines works that are dematerialized, site-specific, unique copies of other works, and institutional critiques. The cross-pollination of literary and art criticism enriches both fields. With “Literature’s Elsewheres”, Gilbert explores what art can’t see about the literary and what literature has overlooked in the arts.
