Drawing on a long history of scientific and artistic experimentation, Claudia Arozqueta offers detailed case studies of heartbeat works by a wide range of international artists working at the interconnections of our bodies, art, and science and technology, including Yoko Ono, Pauline Oliveros, Heinz Mack, Brian O'Doherty, Teresa Burga, and many others. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTechnoscientific advances in monitoring heartbeats and pulses in the nineteenth century--such as Ren? Laennec's stethoscope, ?tienne-Jules Marey's sphygmograph and chronophotograph, and Willem Einthoven's electrocardiograph--transformed the movements of the heart into audible and visual representations. Artists saw in the language of these scientific technologies a way of mingling the inner with the outer, the physical with the technological, and data with flesh. Using archival research, interviews, and correspondence, Arozqueta describes significant works in detail, discusses their contexts and development, and examines the larger classes and contours of this neglected area of artistic activity. Other artists in the volume include ?liane Radigue, Jean Dupuy, Linda Montano, Catherine Richards, Diana Domingues, Mona Hatoum, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, and Christian Boltanski.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Claudia Arozqueta\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0262551888\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780262551885\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e MIT Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/27\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 298\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Claudia Arozqueta","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46795503829247,"sku":"9780262551885","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_efed475d-8db6-4b9c-9a5d-9fa0b87ee5ff.jpg?v=1744947806","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/heartbeat-art-claudia-arozqueta-9780262551885","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
