The Sleep of Reason (Paperback)
The Sleep of Reason (Paperback)
This book offers an original and thought-provoking exploration of a diverse range of contemporary artistic practices, set within a broader cultural context. It argues that art can teach us about the human condition and our way of coinhabiting the planet, in a unique interplay between reason and imagination, creation and contemplation, poetry and inquiry. While acknowledging that art may not have the power to save the world, the author contends that it offers profound insights into our existence and that of others, and serves as a poignant reminder of the persistent challenges that linger like indomitable monsters.
