{"product_id":"theory-rules-jody-berland-9780802076571","title":"Theory Rules: Art as Theory \/ Theory as Art","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn art theory, as in cultural life generally, there has a long been tension between theory and artistic practice. The desire to resolve these tensions has been a principal impulse shaping artistic work and criticism over the last century. The last decade has seen the emergence of a broad, interdisciplinary body of theoretical work with a distinctive relationship to artistic practice, providing a common reference in artworks to the principles and vocabularies of theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sixteen essays in this collection were originally presented at an international conference entitled  Art as Theory \/ Theory and Art, ' held at the University of Ottawa in late 1991. The contributors - critics, curators, and practising artists from Canada, the United States, Europe, and Australia, look at the current relationships between theory and practice in the fields of art, communication, and cultural studies from a wide range of viewpoints. Areas of interest include the institutionalization of theory, theories of vision, gender theory and feminist positions, and theory in a post-colonial context. This volume answers some important new questions about the points of intersection between theory and visual art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jody Berland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0802076572\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802076571\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/25\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 322\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.26h x 6.22w x 0.79d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jody Berland","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059739750655,"sku":"9780802076571","price":41.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_47b515b0-02bf-41ca-9bce-3779549b8a29.jpg?v=1685060046","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/theory-rules-jody-berland-9780802076571","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
