Lessons of Belonging: Art, Place, and the Sea: Doing Arts Thinking: Arts Practice, Research and Education, cartea 11

Autor John Baldacchino
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 mai 2023
Prompting this book is the paradox of belonging. What pushes the author to write are art’s questions. Rather than take the route of writing, artists in academia could opt for the studio, teaching students, and occasionally indulge in conferences and symposia. However, beyond such rituals, writing art’s questions remains akin to art’s acts of belonging. In these lessons of belonging this is done through art’s paradox. Belonging is a matter of art because art belongs to the aporia that writes it.

Recenzii

"The profundity and scholarship of Baldacchino’s thoughts, coupled with the expanding horizons of his and other artist’s visual work ‘show’ us that belonging is always constituent, a force to originate or to instaur beyond established boundaries." – Dennis Atkinson, Goldsmiths University of London

"As in previous works, John Baldacchino’s artistic and philosophical writing challenges the readers to exit into the world. This exit is profoundly implied with today’s politics but also with history and ways of unlearning and imagining other futures for the arts and education." – Catarina Martins, University of Porto

"John Baldacchino’s latest work returns to familiar themes in his writings: the Mediterranean, longing, and art’s connection with the makings of possible pasts and futures. [He] take[s] readers on a journey in which art-making challenges us to grasp what we take for granted as the meaning of belonging." – Sandro Barros, Michigan State University
