Bergson And The Art Of Immanence: Painting, Photography, Film

This work brings Henri Bergson's philosophy of immanence together with the latest ideas in art theory and the practice of immanent art as found in painting, photography and film. This collection of fourteen new essays from world-renowned art theorists, philosophers, and Bergson scholars provides both a wide historical context and a rigorous conceptual framework for contemporary art theory and practice. It involves the concepts of rhythmic duration, perception, affectivity, the body, memory and intuition--all of which were given their first systematic theorisation in the twentieth century as immanent objects through the work of Bergson.
