Book Description
De studie van visuele kunst is een gelaagde, caleidoscopische en kritische bezigheid. Het kunsthistorisch perspectief vormt slechts één van de vele invalshoeken om kunst te beschouwen en onderzoeken. Al veel langer woedt de kwestie: vanuit welke andere perspectieven kan kunst zinvol bestudeerd worden? In de muziek- of taalwetenschap is het bijvoorbeeld vanzelfsprekend om uiteenlopende gezichtspunten in te zetten bij reflectie en onderzoek. Dit boek brengt voor het eerst een breed scala van mondiale invalshoeken op kunst bij elkaar, waaronder neurowetenschappelijke, evolutiebiologische, antropologische en geografische benaderingen, naast meer conventionele kunsthistorische perspectieven. Het onderzoekt op kritische manier de premissen en historiografie van de studie van kunst als een wereldwijd verschijnsel, en introduceert vervolgens verschillende nieuwe concepten, `frameworks of denkmodellen. Het boek blijft niet hangen in abstracte modellen, maar laat via case studies zien hoe bepaalde manieren van onderzoeken en beschouwen werken, welk resultaat of nieuwe vragen deze bieden, om vandaaruit een breder, rijker veld te creëren waarin beeldende kunst gelaagder geanalyseerd kan worden.

World Art Studies (Paperback)
Seller: Grand Eagle Retail, Fairfield, OH, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This timely volume challenges the narrow Western-centrism of most art historical models. Archaeologists have found that, for tens of thousands of years, all human cultures have shared a desire for visual representation or expression. Yet the study of art history has traditionally focused on Western artworks of the past few centuries. "World Art Studies" examines the phenomenon of art through a broader cultural, global and temporal perspective, bringing together a uniquely exhaustive range of perspectives on art and borrowing approaches from the study of neuroscience, evolutionary biology, anthropology and geography as models--alongside more conventional art historical perspectives. In musicology or linguistics, using such diverse viewpoints for reflection and research is considered part of the normal process. In that spirit, this volume goes beyond abstract models, using case studies to demonstrate and examine specific methods of investigation. Edited by Wilfried van Damme, Kitty Zijlmans. Text by Richard L. Anderson, Elisabeth de Bievre, Jean Borgatti, Donald Brown, John Clark, Thomas DaCosta Kaufmann, Wilfried van Damme, Ellen Dissanayake, James Elkins, Paula Ben Amos Girshick, Marlite Halbertsma, John Onians, Ulrich Pfisterer, Colin Rhodes, Ben-Ami Scharfstein, Yiqiang Cao, Kitty Zijlmans.
