Critique of Creativity

Precarity, Subjectivity and Resistance in the ‘Creative Industries’

Gerald Raunig, Gene Ray and Ulf Wuggenig (eds)

London: mayfly 2011, 234 pages

Creativity is astir: reborn, re-conjured, re-branded, resurgent. The old
myths
of creation and creators – the hallowed labors and privileged agencies of
demiurges and prime movers, of Biblical world-makers and self-fashioning
artist-geniuses – are back underway, producing effects, circulating
appeals.
Much as the Catholic Church dresses the old creationism in the new gowns of
‘intelligent design’, the Creative Industries sound the clarion call
to the
Cultural Entrepreneurs. In the hype of the ‘creative class’ and the high
flights of the digital bohemians, the renaissance of ‘the creatives’ is
visibly enacted. The essays collected in this book analyze this complex
resurgence of creation myths and formulate a contemporary critique of
creativity.

With contributions by: Brigitta Kuster, Maurizio Lazzarato, Esther Leslie,
Isabell Lorey, Angela McRobbie, Raimund Minichbauer, Monika Mokre, Stefan
Nowotny, Marion von Osten, Gerald Raunig, Gene Ray, Suely Rolnik, Vassilis
Tsianos, Paolo Virno, Ulf Wuggenig
