The Life of Forms in Art
Bloomsbury Visual Arts (Verlag)
978-1-5013-5391-8 (ISBN)
In a book rich in new research and fresh thinking, a well-known art historian proposes six modalities of organic and vital life that pervade the radical experiments of modern art: the organic, the biomorphic, the ambiguous, the monstrous, the dialectical, and the liquid.
