Gregg Horowitz is Professor of Philosophy and Chair of Social Science and Cultural Studies at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY. His work at the university contributes to rethinking the structure of a liberal education and developing programs in critical cultural theory that draw on the academic and studio resources of an art-and-design college. His publications include the books Sustaining Loss: Art and Mournful Life(Stanford, 2001) and The Wake of Art: Philosophy, Criticism and the Ends of Taste (Routledge, 1998, with Arthur C. Danto and Tom Huhn), among others.

JOHN HENDRIX loves to draw. In fact, he would much rather be drawing than writing this self-aggrandising bio.

Darby English is Carl Darling Buck Professor of Art History and the College at the University of Chicago, and Consulting Curator in the Department of Painting and Sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art. He teaches modern and contemporary art and cultural studies, with a focus on American and European art produced since the Second World War. He is the author of How to See a Work of Art in Total Darkness, published in 2007 by the MIT Press, and 1971: A Year in the Life of Color, forthcoming in 2016 from the University of Chicago Press.
