Read Now Download Now ⏭ listen AudioBook
Description:In A Shoe Story Lesley Chamberlain walks in the footsteps of Vincent Van Gogh and Martin Heidegger and tells a story about 20th century art from an unfamiliar perspective. From Heidegger's 1936 essay on art's origins to a debate in 1977 when Jacques Derrida showed art going to work, not just hanging on the wall, Lesley Chamberlain explores how turmoil over the divine origins of the universe had radical implications for art, artists, and our daily existence. Classical accounts of the individuality and moral genius of the authors of works of art were dramatically overshadowed in the modernist decades. Retracing quarrels on both sides of the Atlantic over aesthetic value and the role of the creative individual, A Shoe Story describes a fundamental division opening up between traditional humanism and Heidegger's legacy. This is a wide-ranging book, a work of cultural history that takes a fresh look at Heidegger as well as discussing the origins of conceptual art and the implications of certain views of art for 'the West'. A Shoe Story is a synthesis of aesthetics and philosophy, a book in which the excitement about ideas is palpable.
