Produktbeschreibung
Art making as thinking In this rich and highly illustrated book Mieke Bal takes us on a journey through the range of her work, using the concept of image-thinking as a point of connection between cultural analysis and artistic practice. Sharing a lifetime of experience of writing about art, making films and installations, as well as curating exhibitions, she shows us how these may be brought into dialogue with insights from theory. Bal teaches us how to think with images, but also how to write and think - as artists and writers - about our own creative work. This is Mieke Bal at her most personal and her best. Mieke Bal is a cultural theorist, critic and video artist. She has published over forty books, most recently Narratology in Practice (2021) and Exhibition-ism: Temporal Togetherness (2021). Emma & Edvard Looking Sideways: Loneliness and the Cinematic (2017) demonstrates her integrated approach to academic, artistic and curatorial work. Her film Reasonable Doubt (2016), on René Descartes and Queen Christina, explores the social aspects of thinking. Currently she is exhibiting a sixteen-channel video work Don Quixote: Sad Countenances.
