| Description: |
Art Is Not What You Think It Is presents a thought-provoking manifesto by two leading art historians which reconsiders current discussions on the idea of art, and offers new and challenging insights into its uses, meanings, and its very nature. |
| Synopsis: |
Art Is Not What You Think It Is utilizes original research to present a series of critical incursions into the current state of debate on the idea of art, making manifest what has been largely missing or unsaid in those discussions. Links museology, history, theory, and criticism to the realities of contemporary social conditions and shows how they have structurally functioned in a variety of contextsDeals with divisive and controversial problems such as blasphemy and idolatry, and the problem of artistic truthAddresses relations between European notions about art and artifice and those developed in other and especially indigenous cultural traditions |
