{"product_id":"practical-aesthetics","title":"Practical Aesthetics","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis collection brings together   artists and theoreticians to provide the first anthology of a new field: Practical   Aesthetics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA work of art already contains its   own criticism, a knowledge of its own which need not be conceptual or propositional.   Yet today, there are many approaches to different forms of art that work on   the brink between science and art, ‘sensible cognition’ and proposition,   aesthetic knowledge and rational knowledge, while thinking \u003ci\u003ewith\u003c\/i\u003e art (or the artistic material)   rather than \u003ci\u003eabout\u003c\/i\u003e it.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volumes presents ways of   thinking \u003ci\u003ewith\u003c\/i\u003e different forms of   art (film, sound, dance, literature, etc), as well as new forms of aesthetic   research and presentation such as Media Philosophy, the audiovisual essay,   fictocriticism, the audio paper, and Artistic Research. It reveals how writing   about art can become ‘artistic’ or ‘poetic’ in its own right: not only   writing about artistic effects, but producing them in the first place. This   takes art not as an object of (external) analysis, but as a subject with a   knowledge in its own right, creating a co-composing 'conceptual interference   pattern' between theory and practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA ‘practical aesthetics’ thus   understood, can be described as thinking with art, in order to find new ways   to create worlds and thus to make the world perceivable in different ways.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56139289887064,"sku":"9781350185524","price":40.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781350185524_398e7bc9-bfef-4950-bf28-eaf629e0d3c8.jpg?v=1770279333","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/practical-aesthetics","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
