Book Synopsis Representations of Pain in Art and Visual Culture by : Maria Pia Di Bella
Download or read book Representations of Pain in Art and Visual Culture written by Maria Pia Di Bella and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presentation of bodies in pain has been a major concern in Western art since the time of the Greeks. The Christian tradition is closely entwined with such themes, from the central images of the Passion to the representations of bloody martyrdoms. The remnants of this tradition are evident in contemporary images from Abu Ghraib. In the last forty years, the body in pain has also emerged as a recurring theme in performance art. Recently, authors such as Elaine Scarry, Susan Sontag, and Giorgio Agamben have written about these themes. The scholars in this volume add to the discussion, analyzing representations of pain in art and the media. Their essays are firmly anchored on consideration of the images, not on whatever actual pain the subjects suffered. At issue is representation, before and often apart from events in the world. Part One concerns practices in which the appearance of pain is understood as expressive. Topics discussed include the strange dynamics of faked pain and real pain, contemporary performance art, international photojournalism, surrealism, and Renaissance and Baroque art. Part Two concerns representations that cannot be readily assigned to that genealogy: the Chinese form of execution known as lingchi (popularly the "death of a thousand cuts"), whippings in the Belgian Congo, American lynching photographs, Boer War concentration camp photographs, and recent American capital punishment. These examples do not comprise a single alternate genealogy, but are united by the absence of an intention to represent pain. The book concludes with a roundtable discussion, where the authors discuss the ethical implications of viewing such images.

Every tear we shed as we go into the depths of the paintings of the soul tells us that this suffering is the canvas for courage that will grow. Pain is the art that our soul creates and all artists meet the same fate eventually. Achilles never expected to encounter pain trough a seemingly innocent book, a story so gripping and tragic that he sets out to find the person who drove him to question life itself.
Book Synopsis Pain and Politics in Postwar Feminist Art by : Rachel Warriner
Download or read book Pain and Politics in Postwar Feminist Art written by Rachel Warriner and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2023-02-23 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1966 and 1976, American artist Nancy Spero completed some of her most aggressively political work. Made at a time when Spero was a key member of the anti-war and feminist arts-activism that burgeoned in the New York art world during the period, her works demonstrate a violent and bodily rejection of injustice. Considering the ways in which anti-war and feminist art used emotion as a means to persuade and protest, Pain and Politics in Postwar Feminist Art examines the history of this crucial decade in American art politics through close attention to Spero's practice. Situating her work amongst the activism that defined the era, this book examines the ways in which sensation and emotion became political weapons for a generation of artists seeking to oppose patriarchy and war. Exemplary of the way in which artists were using metaphors of sensation and emotion in their work as part of the anti-Vietnam war and feminist art movements in the late 1960s and early 1970s, Spero's practice acts as a model for representing how politics feels. By exploring Spero's political engagement anew, this book offer a profound recontextualization of the important contribution that Spero made to Feminist thought, politics and art in the US.

Book Synopsis The Art of Experience by : Dagmara Gizło
Download or read book The Art of Experience written by Dagmara Gizło and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-30 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Art of Experience provides an interdisciplinary analysis of selected plays from Ireland’s premier female playwright, Marina Carr. Dagmara Gizło explores the transformative impact of a theatrical experience in which interdisciplinary boundaries must be crossed. This book demonstrates that theatre is therapeutic and therapy is theatrical. The role of emotions, cognitions, and empathy in the theatrical experience is investigated throughout. Dagmara Gizło utilises the methodological tools stemming from modern empirically grounded psychology (such as cognitive-behavioural therapy or CBT) to the study of theatre’s transformative potential. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of theatre, performance, and literature, and will be a fascinating read for those at the intersection of cognitive studies and the humanities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mouth seems to be a simple organ when, in fact, it is the most vital organ in contact with the outside world. Quick to adapt to change and rapidly healed when injured, the mouth shows emotion, allows communication, aids in lovemaking, fights off bacterial and viral invasions, and feeds us—giving us the energy needed to survive. It provides the passageway for food to nourish us and air to sustain us. Keeping the mouth healthy is a daily battle that can be won for a lifetime of good overall health, once you learn proper techniques to do so. In easy-to-understand detail, this book explains how these battles of the mouth can overcome the worst odds.

It explains how, at the age of 20, Briles lost his parents in a tragic car accident as they were en route to one of his college games. The book relates how Briles, devastated by the loss of his role models, used the catastrophe as motivation to propel him toward the destination of his dreams. As the book elucidates in detail, Coach Briles has made a career of turning failing football programs around in both the high school and collegiate ranks. His latest accomplishments at Baylor University are also chronicled in this account of overcoming tragedy and turning personal loss into overwhelming success.
Book Synopsis Tortured Artists by : Christopher Zara
Download or read book Tortured Artists written by Christopher Zara and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-02-18 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Great art comes from great pain. Or that's the impression left by these haunting profiles. Pieced together, they form a revealing mosaic of the creative mind. It's like viewing an exhibit from the therapist's couch as each entry delves into the mental anguish that afflicts the artist and affects their art. The scope of the artists covered is as varied as their afflictions. Inside, you will find not just the creators of the darkest of dark literature, music, and art. While it does reveal what everyday problem kept Poe's pen to paper and the childhood catastrophe that kept Picasso on edge, it also uncovers surprising secrets of more unexpectedly tormented artists. From Charles Schultz's unrequited love to J.K. Rowling's fear of death, it's amazing the deep-seeded troubles that lie just beneath the surface of our favorite art. As much an appreciation of artistic genius as an accessible study of the creative psyche, Tortured Artists illustrates the fact that inner turmoil fuels the finest work.
