Aesthetics, Philosophy and Martin Creed
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-29179-9 (ISBN)
Working in an impressive variety of artistic media, Creed represents a strikingly innovative take on conceptualism. Through his ingenious and thought-provoking work, a team of international philosophers, jurists and art historians illustrate how Creed epitomizes several questions central to philosophical aesthetics today and provides a glimpse of the future both of art and aesthetic discourse. They discuss key concepts for Creed’s work, including immediacy (in his photographs of smiling people), compositional order (in his geometric paintings), simplicity (in Work No. 218, a sheet paper crumpled into a ball) and shamelessness (in his videos of vomiting people).
By bringing a working artist into the heart of academic discussions, Aesthetics, Philosophy and Martin Creed highlights the relevance of philosophical discussions of art to understanding art today.
Elisabeth Schellekens is Chair Professor of Aesthetics at Uppsala University, Sweden. Davide Dal Sasso is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Philosophy at Università di Torino, Italy.
