Art practices reveal the entwinement of perception and understanding, opening possibilities for new ways of enacting the political. An artwork can serve as more than solely an aesthetic object: in the public sphere it beckons us to resist, challenge, and change the world around us. Wide-ranging in scope and application, Life in Art showcases how, at the intersection of art and phenomenology, sociopolitical issues can be examined anew. Thirteen diverse, international, established and emerging academics and artists reveal how art opens possibilities for breaking colonial logics, resisting injustice, and addressing climate catastrophe. Through their multilayered and multidisciplinary phenomenological analyses, these original essays reveal how a variety of artworks from diverse fields – dance, sculpture, performance, photography, literature, architecture, film, and virtual reality – can engage perception in ways that transform the self and the world. Some essays focus on specific artworks; others consider theoretical questions that frame the intersection of aesthetics and phenomenology; and still more expand on the ways art can lead to political and social action.Offering a multiplicity of diverse views on the intersections between phenomenology and aesthetics, Life in Art highlights how this entanglement fosters our desires to mend, repair, and make new worlds.

"What is so remarkable about this volume, at the heart of which lies the dialogue between phenomenology and the embodied experience and creation of art, is the way in which it challenges and subverts Eurocentric colonial logic and systems of domination, privileging mind over body and the cognitive over the imaginative. . . . This is a book of great beauty and importance. It is also a book about care and caring for others, and about movement and moving: its reflection on movements of sensing and shaping anew will move and shape its reader."—Ariane Mildenberg, author of Modernism and Phenomenology: Literature, Philosophy, Art
