SUMMARY:The Serving Library: The Serving Library: Liverpool Biennial 2018: 
 Reclaiming Beauty as a Public Good – Angela Nagle
DESCRIPTION:Reclaiming Beauty as a Public Good – Angela Nagle\n\nA talk b
 y Angela Nagle (Writer\, author of Kill All Normies\, Dublin and New York)
  curated by The Serving Library in partnership with LJMU’s Exhibition 
 Research Lab for Liverpool Biennial 2018\n\nBeauty has too often been embr
 aced on the right or rejected on the left as a reactionary and western cen
 tric ideal. Starting with conflicting approaches to beauty\, from Roger Sc
 ruton to Susan Sontag\, this talk will explore why beauty remains such a c
 ontroversial aesthetic ideal. More pointedly: why has the attempt to chann
 el egalitarian principles via aesthetics\, when combined with market force
 s\, resulted in a paradoxical situation where beauty can only be accessed 
 by the privileged few?\n\nAngela Nagle (b.1984) writes for The Baffler\,
  Jacobin and The Atlantic\, and has appeared on Chapo Trap House\, Chan
 nel 4 and the Fusion Network. She is the author of the best seller Kill A
 ll 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 Saunders and w
 on her the description by Catherine Liu as 'one of the brightest lights in
  a new generation of left writers and thinkers who have declared their ind
 ependence from intellectual conformity'.\n\nJoin us from 6pm for drinks an
 d conversation ahead of a prompt 6.30pm start.\n\nThis event is part of th
 e public programme for Liverpool Biennial 2018\, which includes a series 
 of talks by leading thinkers and artists in response to the question Beau
 tiful world\, where are you?
