Philosophy of art is traditionally concerned with the
definition, appreciation and value of art. Through a close
examination of art from recent centuries, Art and Phenomenology is
one of the first books to explore visual art as a mode of
experiencing the world itself, showing how in the words of
Merleau-Ponty Painting does not imitate the world, but is a world
of its own .
An outstanding series of chapters by an international group of
contributors examine the following questions:
- Paul Klee and the body in art
- colour and background in Merleau-Ponty 's phenomenology of
art
- self-consciousness and seventeenth-century painting
- Vermeer and Heidegger
- philosophy and the painting of Rothko
- embodiment in Renaissance art
- sculpture, dance and phenomenology.
Art and Phenomenology is essential reading for anyone interested
in phenomenology, aesthetics, and visual culture.
