Picasso/Asia
Why is Pablo Picasso so famous the world over? How does Picasso, the quintessential modern artist of the twentieth century but also undeniably a European, relate to the work of contemporary artists in other parts of the world, such as Asia? And what do Picasso and his legacy mean in an age and a place that are far from his own?These are some of the fundamental questions explored in Picasso/Asia, which accompanies a major exhibition at M+, Hong Kong. At its heart are two intertwined narratives. First, Picasso's life and artistic practice are interpreted through the four archetypes of the creative genius, the outsider looking in, the consummate magician, and the endlessly inquisitive student of art history. Secondly, the fresh interpretation of Picasso's oeuvre is placed "in conversation" with the works of Asian artists, thereby revealing what Picasso's art can tell us about artistic practice today, and vice versa. A visual timeline shows how Asian art and artists migrated to Europe during Picasso's lifetime and became an unavoidable part of his cultural context and milieu, as well as describing Picasso's reception in Asia from the 1910s right up to the end of the 20th century.A bold exploration of complex relationships between origin and reception, invention and adaptation, West and East, this book enriches the discourse on transnational contemporary Asian art and visual culture, while contributing to the growing critical literature on global art history.
Homo Aestheticus
This collection of philosophical fragments presents an aesthetics of existence called the 'Will to Art'. Readers are invited to consider the possibility that the universe is fundamentally an aesthetic phenomenon, understood as a process of creative evolution that is moving, albeit agonistically, towards ever-increasing opportunities for artistic expression and aesthetic experience. In Homo Aestheticus, Samuel Alexander offers an understanding of the human condition when situated in such an aesthetic universe. In presenting his case, Alexander acknowledges debts to Arthur Schopenhauer - for his lucid statement of the problem of pessimism - to Friedrich Nietzsche - for formulating the 'aesthetic justification' of existence - to Friedrich Schiller - for revealing how the origin of humanity's self-awareness was born of the experience of beauty - and to William Morris - for collapsing the distinction between artist and artisan, and for beginning to unpack the ecological and socio-political implications of doing so. By synthesising these traditions in novel ways, Alexander presents an original counter-narrative to the disenchanted materialism that defines modernity.Two premises guide the development of this vision: first, that material sufficiency is all that is needed for human beings to live rich, meaningful, and artful lives; and second, that material sufficiency is all that is possible, over the long term, on a finite planet in an age of environmental limits. Based on those premises, Alexander proposes and defends a conception of ecological civilisation which he calls SMPLCTY. This is an anarcho-communitarian society of poet-farmers that sustainably provides all people with opportunities to find meaning and pleasure through creative labour and aesthetic experience.Further detail on the present work can be found in the much larger companion volume, S M P L C T Y: Ecological Civilisation and the Will to Art (2023), from which the ideas herein have been distilled.'If we are to solve the political problem in practice, [we must] follow the path of aesthetics, since it is through Beauty that we arrive at Freedom.' - Friedrich Schiller

Combating Oppression with New Commemorations
Combating Oppression with New Commemorations examines the ways in which marginalized groups can confront oppressive regimes through commemorations and advocacy of their own heritage.Presenting case studies from across the globe, the volume provides invaluable insights into the diverse strategies and various disciplinary approaches being used to counter oppression through commemorations of the heritage of marginalized groups. Reminding the reader that such commemorations are often created by individuals who have directly confronted traumas of oppression, contributors emphasize that their survivance, successes, and vitality are tributes to human resilience and creativity. Chapters also demonstrate how such commemorations can advance recognition of the group's diverse legacies and cultural identity and help enhance social and economic equities for that population across local, regional, and national scales. It is also made clear that they can provide resources for reconciliation negotiations with other social collectives who seek to oppress the marginalized group. These dynamics can facilitate truth-telling, accountability, recovery of unrecorded histories, revitalization, increments of healing, and efforts to avoid future repetitions of past and present social traumas.Combating Oppression with New Commemorations will be essential reading for academics, and students working in heritage studies, archaeology, anthropology, material culture studies, landscape analysis, and museum studies. It will also be of great interest to practitioners and activists around the world.
The Art of Sensorial Language
The Art of Sensorial Language examines audience interactivity and multisensory experiences that can be understood internationally and cross-culturally. It considers interactivity not as a technological mode of interaction but as a direct and immediate communication between the audience and the performers, which takes place in person and in which all participants are in contact with each other. By describing theatrical techniques and approaches for organically immersing the audience in the story, this book shows how the development of these methods is also applicable to multisensory presentations for museums and galleries. The author places particular emphasis on the development of scents and their uses for cultural and educational purposes to allow for greater and deeper immersion in an event or installation. Inspired by the work of Enrique Vargas, the inventor of sensorial language, the discussion reveals how this approach not only engages the senses but also integrates additional methods and tools to create a poetic symphony, which is particularly important for enriching user experiences in theatres, galleries and museums, as well as in other forms of immersive experiences.This study will be of great interest to experts in multisensory approaches within the fields of the arts and education, as well as specialists in cultural heritage and tourism.

Events of Art and Education in Post-climate Times
This book concerns the urgency of thinking and acting in response to climate change through art and education. While both fields are often connected through disciplinary dialogues, climate change prompts a greater need to unite artists and educators around common environmental problems and goals.By staging transcritical engagements, this book draws out common and uncommon disciplinary perspectives that can generate new ways of thinking, living, and doing in the Anthropocene. Ideas around courage, resilience, life, and death emerge. An expression of active, non-violent resistance to the ongoing destruction of our planet, this book supports imaginative action, popular sovereignty, and the courage to live well within the challenges of our era. Engaging artists' and educators' questions, it maps significant differences and potential intersections for further enquiry.Events of Art and Education in Post-climate Times will be helpful for students studying art, education, environment, sustainability, and climate change. It will also interest researchers, practising artists, and teachers in these disciplines by being at the forefront of current discussions in both fields.
Museums and Design Practices
Museums and Design Practices explores the increasingly critical role that design is playing in museums by focusing on how human-centred design approaches are being embraced and incorporated into their work practices.This book advances "design-as-practice" as a way to acknowledge the technosocial dimension of the working culture of cultural organisations. It reveals how designing is a situated phenomenon that enables museums and galleries to respond in a digitally mature way to emerging contexts and challenges of digital transformation. The original thesis forwarded by the authors is reinforced by reflections shared by leading museum practitioners and designers on the complex and multifaceted nature of human-centred practices found in museums and the various ways they function within their organisational working cultures. The infusion of design into all levels of museum practice demonstrates the capacity to transform how museums approach visitor experience, inclusive collaboration, and knowledge sharing in order to build resilience in the face of change and respond to the 'wicked problems' confronting cultural organisations today.Museums and Design Practices is for students and researchers as well as museum practitioners - especially those keen to understand emerging relationships that are forming between digital technology, design and the cultural work of museums. It will also be of interest to researchers and students working in the fields of design, digital culture, and museum studies.
