  • Art and Agency

    An Anthropological Theory

    par Alfred Gell ...
    Alfred Gell puts forward a new anthropological theory of visual art, seen as a form of instrumental action: the making of things as a means of influencing the thoughts and actions of others.

  • Chaos Imagined

    Literature, Art, Science

    par Martin Meisel ...

But beneath the quest for order lies the uneasy dread of fundamental disorder. True chaos is hard to imagine and even harder to represent. In this book, Martin Meisel considers the long effort to conjure, ... En savoir plus

    Three Studies in Art and War

    par Rosalyn Deutsche ...
    Collections series The Wellek Library Lectures
    Many on the left lament an apathy or amnesia toward recent acts of war. Particularly during the George W. Bush administration's invasion of Iraq, opposition to war seemed to lack the heat and potency of the 1960s and 1970s, giving the impression that passionate dissent was all but dead.Through an analysis of three politically engaged works of art, Rosalyn Deutsche argues against this melancholic ...
