The relationship between the arts has fascinated people for
centuries. Discussing the ancient notion of ekphrasis, this study
examines the interpenetration of literary and non-literary art.
Traditionally, ekphrasis is defined as a rhetorical device for the
poetic description of a painting or a sculpture that has been
steadily gaining attention in literary studies since the
mid-twentieth century. Taking a close look at the works of Don
DeLillo, Paul Auster and Tom McCarthy, the author demonstrates how
ekphrasis is useful for reading contemporary novels that feature
non-representative, conceptual works of art.
