CCA Critical Studies and Sculpture programs present a lecture on Heidegger among the sculptors by Andrew J. Mitchell, assistant professor of philosophy at Emory University.

Heidegger's later aesthetic theory is predominantly concerned with the art of sculpture. In texts from the 1950s and 1960s, Heidegger analyzes the work of various sculptors in terms of how the sculpted body engages with the space around it. This interface between body and space requires a new thinking of mediation and relationally.

Attending to Heidegger's thoughts on sculpture is consequently no isolated aesthetic endeavor, but instead a being-in-the-world way of thinking. Sculpture can teach us what it means to dwell.
