    Through much of the twentieth century, philosophical thinking about works of art, design, and other aesthetic products has emphasized intuitive and reflective methods, often tied to the idea that philosophy's business is primarily to analyze concepts.

  • The Curatorial

    A Philosophy of Curating

    Edición de Jean-Paul Martinon ...
    Stop curating! And think what curating is all about. This book starts from this simple premise: thinking the activity of curating.

It provides welcome relief from prevailing modes of explaining art that involve definitions, philosophical claims, and critical judgments put forth by third parties. Scrapping all such chatter, Miguel Tamen’s aphoristic lark with aesthetic questions proceeds by taking its technical vocabulary only from Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s ... Leer más

However, because of their prevalence and mundane nature, we tend not to pay much attention to them, let alone examine their significance.

  • Chaos Imagined

    Literature, Art, Science

    de Martin Meisel ...
    The stories we tell in our attempt to make sense of the world—our myths and religion, literature and philosophy, science and art—are the comforting vehicles we use to transmit ideas of order. 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, ... Leer más

    Levinas and the Contemporary Gaze

    de Hagi Kenaan ...
    Series series International Library of Contemporary Philosophy
    Our world is saturated with images. Overwhelmed by this proliferation of visual stimuli, our gaze becomes increasingly bored and distracted. Do we ever really read and engage with images? Can they ever provide the sense of meaningfulness we crave? French-Jewish philosopher Emmanuel Levinas confronted and subverted these questions. A superficial reading of his works might indicate an ambivalence if ... Leer más
