The Sculptural Imagination
Author: Alex Potts
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 9780300088014
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 442
Book Description
Potts also offers a detailed view of selected iconic works by sculptors ranging from Antonio Canova and Auguste Rodin to Constantin Brancusi, David Smith, Carl Andre, Eva Hesse and Louise Bourgeois - key players in modern thinking about the sculptural. The impact of minimalism features prominently in this discussion, for it disrupted accepted understanding of how a viewer interacts with a work of art, thereby placing the phenomenology of viewing three-dimensional objects for the first time at the center of debate about modern visual art."--Jacket.

Author: Kathleen Stein-Smith
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319341596
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 126

Feeling Power
Author: Megan Boler
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135963002
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
First published in 1999. Megan Boler combines cultural history with ethical and multicultural analyses to explore how emotions have been disciplined, suppressed, or ignored at all levels of education and in educational theory. FEELING POWER charts the philosophies and practices developed over the last century to control social conflicts arising from gender, class, and race. The book traces the development of progressive pedagogies from civil rights and feminist movements to Boler's own recent studies of emotional intelligence and emotional literacy. Drawing on the formulation of emotion as knowledge within feminist, psychobiological, and post structuralist theories, Boler develops a unique theory of emotion missing from contemporary educational discourses.
