Lecture – Shadows of the Absent Body with Judith Butler
In this lecture, Judith Butler, the Maxine Elliot Professor of Comparative Literature at the University of California, Berkeley, considers how in the context of Salcedo’s work the field of grievability is a sensate field riddled with loss. Grievability is a potential that is only partially realized through a transformation of the object world—the tactical, the relations of proximity, and the shadows of the absent body in the field of objects. The remainders of a life assemble in new form, never giving back that life, but establishing counter-monumental forms of memorialization. To establish a life as grievable, as worthy of grief—and worthy of preservation—is an injunction that pertains to both the living and the dead. But under conditions when the body is no longer recognizable, how do the objects that remain come together to speak to the loss?
