Looking at encounters that can puncture or jolt us, this volume
uses art as a lens through which to register and understand
exceptional experiences. The volume also includes the
fieldworker’s experience of unexpected events that can lead to
key understandings, as well as revelatory moments that happen
during artistic creation and while looking at art. By exploring
exceptional experiences through art, the volume asks probing
questions for anthropology. In recognizing that art is
all-encompassing – including, as it does, narrative, performance,
dance and images – Exceptional Experiences situates itself within
a number of conversations on methodological and conceptual issues
in anthropology and beyond.
