SUMMARY:The Serving Library: Liverpool Biennial 2018: Reclaiming Beauty as 
 a Public Good – Angela Nagle
DESCRIPTION:Reclaiming Beauty as a Public Good – Angela Nagle\n\nBOOK NOW
 \n\nA talk by Angela Nagle (Writer\, author of Kill All Normies\, Dublin a
 nd New York) curated by The Serving Library in partnership with LJMU’s
  Exhibition Research Lab for Liverpool Biennial 2018\n\nBeauty has too oft
 en been embraced on the right or rejected on the left as a reactionary and
  western centric ideal. Starting with conflicting approaches to beauty\, f
 rom Roger Scruton to Susan Sontag\, this talk will explore why beauty rema
 ins such a controversial aesthetic ideal. More pointedly: why has the atte
 mpt to channel egalitarian principles via aesthetics\, when combined with 
 market forces\, resulted in a paradoxical situation where beauty can only 
 be accessed by the privileged few?\n\nAngela Nagle (b.1984) writes for Th
 e Baffler\, Jacobin and The Atlantic\, and has appeared on Chapo Trap H
 ouse\, Channel 4 and the Fusion Network. She is the author of the best sel
 ler Kill All Normies: Online Culture Wars from 4chan and tumblr to Trump 
 and the alt-right. It was voted one of the books of the year by George Sau
 nders and won her the description by Catherine Liu as 'one of the brightes
 t lights in a new generation of left writers and thinkers who have declare
 d their independence from intellectual conformity'.\n\nJoin us from 6pm fo
 r drinks and conversation ahead of a prompt 6.30pm start.\n\nThis event is
  part of the public programme for Liverpool Biennial 2018\, which include
 s a series of talks by leading thinkers and artists in response to the que
 stion Beautiful world\, where are you?
