The most successful film of the summer, Greta
#Gerwig’s
#Barbie (2023), invites philosophical reflection on a number of
#feminist-aesthetic issues. Aesthetic Investigations is inviting authors to submit texts (1500 words max.) that analyse the film’s feminist
#aesthetics for our Fresh section. We encourage authors to consider how issues familiar to feminist aesthetics are taken up and treated in the film. (Deadline: 15 October, expand post to see further details)

Aesthetic Investigations
The aim of the journal Aesthetic Investigations is to develop contemporary debates in philosophical aesthetics, and initiate new ones—and to do this from any available angle. We welcome contributions from analytical as well as continental philosophers of art.
Such issues include (but are not limited to): activism, activist curating/directing, adornment, body imagery, care aesthetics, collective practices, degraded landscapes, disabilities, disgust, disturbational art, ecological interventions, everyday aesthetics, fashion, glitchcore, grief, humor, intersectionality, LatinX Aesthetics, political imagination, rogue heroes, sentimental objects, as well as feminist perspectives on the religious motifs of the film.
