Why Art Criticism? A Reader
Author: Julia Voss
Publisher: Hatje Cantz Verlag
ISBN: 3775750932
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 710
Book Description
How is art criticism to be understood within an expanding artistic field? A look at its history and its manifestations within globalized conditions shows the variety of the genre, of the criteria and of the styles of writing. This reader is an attempt to bring a diverse range of art-critical voices and perspectives into conversation with each other, with texts from the 18th century to the present. The editors Beate Söntgen and Julia Voss have invited colleagues from various geographical and intellectual backgrounds to present and discuss the art critics of their choice, choosing one example from their respective bodies of work to comment upon. How have these writers approached art criticism? Which styles do they employ? What makes them extraordinary? What can we learn from their writings today, and why is it important in its contemporary context? BEATE SÖNTGEN (*1963) is professor of art history at Leuphana University Lüneburg. She studied art history, philosophy, and modern German literature in Marburg and Berlin. She is director of the DFG Research Training Group "Cultures of Critique: Forms, Media, Effects" and co-director of the program "PriMus - Doctoral Studies in Museums." JULIA VOSS (*1974) is an honorary professor at Leuphana University Lüneburg. She studied art history, modern German literature, and philosophy in Berlin and London. She is herself an art critic and journalist and was deputy head of the arts section of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.

Ghost Pirate
Author: Juliana Coles
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781502432377
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
Ghost Pirate is a non-linear, non-traditional brave tale of the legendary pirate, Juana la Loca, as told through the Visual Journal or art diary pages of mixed media artist and visual journaling pioneer, Juliana Coles. In a world that puts scant value on introspection, this soulful collection of imagery combined with text is almost overwhelmingly honest, raw, gut wrenching expression that will completely absorb you. This intimate cache of potent imagery and authentic narrative not only satiates with a revolutionary visual feast, but also provides assignments to create your own Pirate's Journal that invite you to illuminate your fears by going into the dark. Not for the faint of heart. As Carl Jung said, "One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious." This book, really more of a journey and a guide to the underworld, encourages each one of us to go to the depths of our being to discover inner treasure and untold riches.
