Researching and Writing on Contemporary Art and Artists : Challenges, Practices, and Complexities, Hardback Book

Researching and Writing on Contemporary Art and Artists : Challenges, Practices, and Complexities Hardback

Edited by Christopher Wiley, Ian Pace

Hardback

Description

Researching and writing about contemporary art and artists present unique challenges for scholars, students, professional critics and creative practitioners alike.

This collection of essays from across the arts disciplines—music, literature, dance, theatre and the visual arts—explores the challenges and complexities raised by engaging in researching and writing on living or recently deceased subjects and their output.

Different sections explore critical perspectives and case studies in relation to innovative, distinctive or otherwise leading work, as well as offering innovative modes of discourse such as a visual essay and a music composition.

Subjects addressed include recent scandals of Canadian literary celebrity, late-career output, the written element of music composition PhDs, and the boundaries between ethnography and hagiography, with case studies ranging from Howard Barker to Adrian Piper to Sylvie Guillem and Misty Copeland.
