Pierce and Judith Butler. It argues for a performative relationship between art and artist. Drawing on themes as diverse as the work of Cezanne and Francis Bacon, the transubstantiation of the Catholic sacrament, and Wilde's novel \"The Picture of Dorian Gray\", she challenges the metaphor of light as entertainment. She suggests that too much \"light\" may in fact reveal nothing. Finally, she asks: how does an \"embodied\" practice fare within the culture of conceptual art?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBarbara Bolt is a practising artist and a Lecturer in Visual Arts and Communication at the University of Melbourne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 209\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.66 x 9.26 x 6.22 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 23, 2004\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47464853307645,"sku":"9781850434115","price":73.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/Ua2bOTSift9781850434115.webp?v=1777261781","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/art-beyond-representation-the-performative-power-of-the-image-paperback","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
