Radical Intimacy in Contemporary Art contests sexual and gender politics by foregrounding unbearable borders of subjects, objects, meaning, and the world. Moving beyond persistent dualisms of subject/object, sense/materiality, psychoanalysis and new materialism, the book opens a new approach to visual arts and feminist aesthetics. An invaluable resource.

Moscovitch's powerful and unendingly elegant Radical Intimacy in Contemporary Art takes Kristeva's notion of revolt lightyears beneath the surface of human being. What she comes up with is nothing short of revelation. If the future lies in radical intimacy, Keren Moscovitch is the promise of the future.

The intriguing and timely theme of the book – radical intimacy in contemporary art practice and theory – is compellingly reflected in the urgency and force of the writing. It is rare to have a philosophically complex theory successfully married to a comprehensive exploration of artists at work in the present moment.
