FAIR ENOUGH is a podcast series by ART COLOGNE in collaboration with the journal TEXTE ZUR KUNST.
Presented by Micaela Dixon, FAIR ENOUGH brings together artists, curators, writers, and thinkers to reflect on how art and its institutions are responding to the urgencies of our present moment. This season marks the 35th anniversary of TEXTE ZUR KUNST. Here, the journal's motto for the year is taken up, there is no art without criticism. Each episode returns to a past issue of the journal to revisit the debates it sparked and to consider how those questions continue to shape the cultural and political landscape today.
In this episode, Michaela Dixon is joined by Professor Anna Kornbluh, who teaches English at the University of Illinois in Chicago. Broadly speaking, Kornbluh's research engages cultural production, including the novel, film, TV, art, and architecture, through and alongside Marxism, psychoanalysis, formalism, and literary theory.
In 2025, she was ranked number nine on the Art Review Power 100 list. Her recent essays have explored topics such as infrastructure cinema, the death drive, solidarity, and feminist abstraction. She is the author of Immediacy or the Style of Too Late Capitalism, published by Verso Books in 2024. Currently, Kornbluh is working on two forthcoming books. The first, Climate Counter-Aesthetics, argues for forms that can test prevailing ecological artworks and counter eco-critical paradigms. And the second, Good Enough Art, offers a theory of mid-aesthetics in the context of disappearing middle-class economics, a topic discussed in this episode.
