Paperback. Condition: New. Metaphor, which allows us to talk about things by comparing them to other things, is one of the most ubiquitous and adaptable features of language and thought. It allows us to clarify meaning, yet also evaluate and transform the ways we think, create and act. While we are alert to metaphor in spoken or… written texts, it has, within the visual arts, been critically overlooked. Taking into consideration how metaphors are inventively embodied in the formal, technical, and stylistic aspects of visual artworks, Mark Staff Brandl shows how extensively artists rely on creative metaphor within their work. Exploring the work of a broad variety of artists - including Dawoud Bey, Dan Ramirez, Gaëlle Villedary, Raoul Deal, Sonya Clark, Titus Kaphar, Charles Boetschi, and more- he argues that metaphors are the foundation of visual thought, are chiefly determined by bodily and environmental experiences, and are embodied in artistic form. Visual artistic creation is philosophical thought. By grounding these arguments in the work of philosophers and cultural theorists, including Noël Carroll, Hans Georg Gadamer, and George Lakoff, Brandl shows how important metaphor is to understanding contemporary art. A Philosophy of Visual Metaphor in Contemporary Art takes a neglected feature of the visual arts and shows us what a vital role it plays within them. Bridging theory and practice, and drawing upon a capacious array of examples, this book is essential reading for art historians and practitioners, as well as analytic philosophers working in aesthetics and meaning.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First. A small bookonly 24 unpaginated pagesserving as the catalog for a small yet important exhibition. Boris Aronson started designing theater sets revolutionary Russia and then Germany, working in the new Constructivist style, before moving to New York in 1923. He started out in the more adven…turous Jewish theaters of the city's Lower East Side but by 1932 he was working on Broadway. By the end of his life, in 1980, he had won six Tony Awards for scenic design, had designed sets for not only major theater productions of such plays as "The Crucible," "The Diary of Anne Frank," "Cabaret," and "Fiddler on the Roof," but he had become great friends with the painter Marc Chagall (whose work inspired some of his designs) and worked closely with composer Kurt Weill, director Harold Prince, and dancer/choreographer Mikhail Baryshnikov. New York Times theater critic Frank Rich not only served as curator for this exhibition, he also thought Aronson so important that he co-wrote a biography of him two years before this exhibition of his drawings, paintings, photographs, and models with Aronson's widow, Lisa Jalowetz Aronson. An extended piece by Rich about Aronson also starts off this catalog. Fourteen images of designs appear in this catalog in addition to the design on the cover; eleven of them are in full color and twelve of them are full page. Although this book is new, it does show signs of shelf wear on the front cover, particularly at the spine. There some cosmetic damage to the upper right corner of the cover and faint smudging upper corners of several other pages. However, there is no damage to the images themselvesthey are prinstine. The pages are clean, bright, and besides the staining the the corners, unmarked. No pages are loose or missing. See our photos for details. Aronson, Boris (illustrator).
