Visual Arts Practice and Affect: Place, Materiality and Embodied Knowing: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Visual Arts Practice and Affect: Place, Materiality and Embodied Knowing" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Visual Arts Practice and Affect brings together a group of artist scholars to explore how visual arts can offer unique insights into the understanding of place, memory and affect. Each contributor highlights the crucial role the creative arts play in envisaging new perspectives on the making of meaning, ones that are grounded in the practicalities, materialities and embodied knowing of artistic practice. Art offers other ways of seeing, thinking, understanding the world. It can be very messy, very challenging, but also moving, exquisite, astounding. The book opens a space for experiential appreciation by offering a writing that allows both the writer and the reader to consider those sorts of embodied sensibilities

While this work may be a modest contribution to the understanding of the importance of visual arts as a way of knowing, it has made a significant impact on our intellectual lives, both individually and collectively, as artist scholars. It is a testament to the creative spirit, love, generosity, and damn hard work of five women who squirreled away time to think, write, and reflect, amidst their complex lives while wearing multiple guises as lecturers, course coordinators, programme managers, administrators, artists, family members, carers, partners, lovers, and friends. Over the course of this collaboration, we have grown with great and humble respect for each others intelligence, goodwill, humour, tirelessness, and support. This artful conversation could not have been achieved without each other.

A good idea at the time does not publish itself. We are grateful to commissioning editor, Martina Sullivan, and series editors, Christine Berberich and Neil Campbell, who have had faith in the project from the beginning and have provided support and advice throughout. Equally, we thank the anonymous reviewers for their insightful comments that enabled us craft our conversations. Particularly, our gratitude extends to our copy editor, Dean Chan, for his considerable talent and eagle-eyed scrutiny of the draft manuscript. Julianne Clifford gave very valuable assistance in the early stages of this project as a research assistant.

This work has been crafted over fragments of time in our academic working lives, between occasional research days, semester breaks, weekends, family holidays, and sleepless nights. We appreciate the support of our colleagues in the School of Design and Art at Curtin University who filled in some of the gaps in the working week that allowed us writing time; thanks are also due to our students who understood when we were a day or two late in returning feedback on their draft essays.

Most of all, this book is the result of support from people in our lives who have been there for us when weve lost the plot, when weve needed a laugh, or someone else to cook the dinner, or look after the dog, or have given us critical support and encouragement, or told us we are on the wrong track, or even the right one! In a work that is in part about embodiment, it is difficult to put flesh and blood around all these kindnesses without writing a novel in its own right. You have been there for us. This following public naming is but a small recognition of our deepest thanks, love, and respect:

Paola Anselmi, Michelle Becker, Sue Briggs, Kate Campbell-Pope, Gina Cinanni, Erin Coates, Vince Costantino, Christopher Crouch, Brian Doherty, Moira Doropoulos, Lesley Duxbury, Barbie Greenshields, Bevan Honey, Mia Honey, Stella Honey, Melannie Nazzari, Rachel Robertson, Jane Richens, Elizabeth Riley, Adelina Sabadini, Walter Schilo, Bruce Slatter, Justin Strange, Joan Wardrop, Kerri Wilkes, Pauline Williams.

This is a conversation between you and I, between us. With this initial sentence, we already encounter ideas in the first instance, about our subject positions: you, the reader of my imagination, and I, the writer who in this book takes a number of guises, and whose biographical details provide you with a tenuous legitimacy to my authorial claims. And secondly, though perhaps, more crucially for how these ideas unfold, the sentence begins with a proposition to you to enter into a conversation. Of course, we cant physically do that as though we are sitting alongside each other on a train, or by a fireside, or over a table in the kitchen; rather, it is a manner of conversing through writing and reading. My address to you takes inspiration from Rebecca Solnit (2003), who notes how conversation plays a critical role in both the way she works with and alongside artists, as well as in her approach to writing. And like her, we, the authors of this book, are interested in the slippages, associations, disjunctions, and reflections that occur in our encounters with art and when we speak to one another. In both instances, whether it is a look, a texture, a colourful phrase, a memory of another occasion, an uncomfortable word, something affects the interplay of ideas and interests. So, rather than demand that you pay attention to my inquiry, as if directed by an officious autocrat, by following from point to point in a linear logical order, which has been a well-used formula for conventional scholarly writing, I approach this conversationally wherein ideas collage, layer, do things irreverently, arise, disappear, are messy, and even untamed in the hope that you also find moments that excite your scholarly imagination in a similar way that art seduces.
