Bakhtin and the Visual Arts assesses the relevance of Mikhail
Bakhtin's ideas as they relate to painting and sculpture. First
published in the 1960s, Bakhtin's writings introduced the concepts
of carnival and dialogue or dialogism, which have had significant
impact in such diverse fields as literature and literary theory,
philosophy, theology, biology and psychology. In his four early
aesthetic essays, written between 1919 and 1926, and before he
began to focus on linguistic and literary categories, Bakhtin
worked on a larger philosophy of creativity, which was never
completed. Deborah Haynes's in-depth 1995 study of his aesthetics,
especially his theory of creativity, analyses its applicability to
contemporary art theory and criticism. The author argues that
Bakhtin, with such categories as answerability, outsideness and
unfinalizability, offers a conceptual basis for interpreting the
moral dimensions of creative activity.
