McNally Jackson Live: On Pretentiousness: Dan Fox in Conversation with Asad Raza. Moderated by Christian Lorentzen

• Books & Literature

Join the brilliant Dan Fox for a celebration of Pretentiousness, an incisive attempt to define—and defend—the various roles and invocations of pretentiousness in society. Chris Kraus writes: “Exhaustively researched and passionately written, recognizing those who audaciously ‘pretend’ to beauty beyond their present means, Pretentiousness is a deeply optimistic and affirming book.” Joining Dan in conversation will be producer, filmmaker, and artist, Asad Raza. Moderated by Christian Lorentzen, Book Critic for New York Magazine’s Vulture, and editor-at-large at The London Review of Books.
