Art practices are inherently political, engaging systems of perception and understanding to open possibilities for new ways of being. An artwork can serve as more than solely an aesthetic object: as it enters the public sphere it can resist, challenge, and change how we think about and understand the world around us.
Wide-ranging in scope and application, Life in Art showcases how, at the intersection of art and phenomenology, sociopolitical issues can be examined anew. Eleven diverse, international, established and emerging academics and artists reveal how art opens possibilities for breaking colonial logics, resisting injustice, and addressing climate catastrophe. Through their multilayered and multidisciplinary phenomenological analyses, these original essays reveal how a variety of artworks from diverse fields--dance, sculpture, performance, photography, literature, architecture, film, and virtual reality--can engage perception in ways that transform the self and the world. Some essays focus on engagement with specific artworks; others consider theoretical questions that frame the intersection of aesthetics and phenomenology; and still more expand on the ways art can lead to political and social action.
Offering a multiplicity of diverse views on the intersections between phenomenology and aesthetics, Life in Art highlights how this entanglement fosters our desires to mend, repair, and make worlds anew.
