*Issue 28: “Contending with Crisis”*



For its twenty-eighth issue, *InVisible Culture: An Electronic Journal for
Visual Culture* invites scholarly articles and creative works that address
the complex and multiple meanings of contending with crisis.

Defined by the global uncertainty of a world afflicted by varied and
ambiguously interrelated states of emergency, the present can be seen as a
critical historical conjuncture characterized by crisis. In the context of
its worldwide occurrence, crisis refers irreducibly to a multitude of
circumstances, events, and thematizations: military conflict, debt crises,
issues of political representation, the mass migration and displacement of
refugees, increasing ecological disruptions. Such ruptures in the social
demand constant attention from individuals and communities, constituting a
need for committed artististic and scholarly engagements with questions of
what it means to be in crisis and how to deal with it.

Following Lauren Berlant’s understanding of crisis as “an emergency in the
reproduction of life, a transition that has not found its genres for moving
on,” we encourage authors to contemplate the fluidity/liminality of crisis,
exploring both its emancipatory and repressive potentials. As an ongoing
situation, a conceptual and rhetorical figure, an ideological
representation and for many an urgent fact of life, the contemporary
condition of crisis evokes a range of responses from those forced to
contend with it.

For IVC 28, we invite contributors to explore visual representations and
contestations of various states of crisis. How do crises emerge and perform
in the visual field? How does the global situation of crisis reconfigure
the possibilities of political representation? How do the material
conditions of crisis constrain and transform everyday life and social
organization? What kind of aesthetic responses and modes of cultural production
proliferate in response? What forms of domination surface in times of
crisis and how do they become realized in ensuing reorganizations of social
orders? What productive potentials emerge or re-emerge in the face of
specific and far-reaching crisis conditions?

Possible topics of exploration include, but are not limited to:

• Visualizing/representing crisis, the visual politics of crisis
• Political representation and subjectivity in/of crisis
• Uneven distribution of vulnerabilities along lines of race, gender, and
sexuality
• Precarity, biopolitics and affective regimes of crisis and austerity
• Activism, social movements, visual and performative protest repertoires
• Creative responses to states of crisis, new modes of artistic production,
aesthetics of resistance
• Collaborative aesthetics and the commons
• Material landscapes of crisis, crisis and urban space, austerity urbanism
• Aesthetics of rupture, ruin, abandonment
• Historiographies, afterlives of crises
• Crisis genres: crises of dispossession (debt crisis, moral discourse of
indebtedness), crises of political representation (Arab Spring, global rise
of neo-populist nationalisms, Brexit, 2016 US election), postcolonial
crises, military crises (Syria, Ukraine), refugee and humanitarian crisis,
ecological crises (climate change, Fukushima, DAPL)
