Abstract
Lawrence Hamilton’s conception of aesthetic representation is part of the representative and constructivist turns, and I use a critical reading of his work to examine how we can conceptualise the constitutive character of representation; and the implications for political institutions and activism of taking representation as constitutive. I show how Hamilton limits the effects of the two turns in two areas in particular: the notion of human needs and the focus on political institutions at the expense of activist politics.
