Since the latter half of the 20th century, committed art has been associated with conceptual, critical and activist practices. Painting, by contrast, is all too often defined as an outmoded, reactionary, market-led venture; an ineffectual medium from the perspective of social and political engagement. How can paintings change the world today?
The question of painting, in particular, fuelled the investigations of a major 20th-century philosopher: the French phenomenologist, Maurice Merleau-Ponty (1907-61). Merleau-Ponty was at the forefront of attempts to place philosophy on a new footing by contravening the authority of Cartesian dualism and objectivist thought-an authority that continues to limit present-day intellectual, imaginative, and ethical possibilities. A central aim ofThe Question of Paintingis to provide a closely focused, chronological account of his unfolding project and its relationship with art, clarifying how painting, as a paradigmatically embodied and situated mode of investigation, helped him to access the fundamentally intercorporeal basis of reality as he saw it, and articulate its lived implications.
With an exclusive and extended conversation about the contemporary virtues of painting with New York based artist Leah Durner, for whom the work of Merleau-Ponty is an important source of inspiration,The Question of Paintingbrings todays much debated concerns about the criticality of painting into contact with the question of painting in philosophy.

This book is dedicated, with profound thanks, to the memory of Professor Michael Podro. It was Michael who first introduced me to the work of Merleau-Ponty and who supervised the MA and PhD research I carried out on this topic while at the University of Essex. The original research for this project was supported by funding from a British Academy Scholarship.

I would also like to thank my family members they know who they are and my friends and colleagues, including Leah Durner, Walter Hayn, Donna Kehoe, Angela Nicholls, Alex Potts and Diana Stephenson, as well as my editors at Bloomsbury, Liza Thompson, Frankie Mace, Beth Williams and Sweda Deanta, for their wonderful friendship, advice and support.

I thank the publishers of the following works for granting me permission to reproduce substantial extracts for the purposes of analysis and discussion:
