Drawing on the philosophy of Merleau-Ponty, Levinas, Lyotard and Deleuze on the one hand and on media theory on the other, this title develops a phenomenology of aesthetic reflection, visuality and visual art, in order to rethink art's ethical and political relevance in digital-media culture.
Contents: Introduction; Space without hiding places: Merleau-Ponty's discussion of linear perspective; Touching the face: the ethical dimension of visuality between Levinas and a Rembrandt self-portrait; Between battlefield and play: on art and aesthetics in visual culture; Criticism from within: on reflection and aesthetic feeling; The mediation of passibility: art and interactive spectatorship; Bibliography; Index.
