"The Ethics of Art" explores the growing ethical consciousness
within the artistic community, as it relates to art's production
and distribution mechanisms. It attempts to show how the artistic
community engages in creative, social dialogue based upon the
potential of the body. The first of this book's two sections,
"Ecosophy," focuses on eco-art practices and the ways in which the
ethical turn in the arts implies a greater receptivity to our
environment. The second section addresses the contemporary dance
scene as an example of this phenomenon, showing how it exhibits
renewed interest in "caring" for one's body, rather than
transgressing it, both on the individual level and on that of the
larger "body politic" of cooperation and collaboration. In this
volume, the singular voices of artists are as important as the
scholarly contributions.
