Chance, Phenomenology and Aesthetics
«This is a fascinating book: a rich journey into how 20th century artists incorporate chance in visual arts, texts, music, and dance. Drawing from Husserl, Heidegger, and Derrida, Ian Andrews illuminates how chance operations work as a discipline of non-intention that frees possibilities of change and self-transformation.»
Daniela Vallega-Neu, Professor of Philosophy, University of Oregon, USA
In drawing upon the work of Jacques Derrida, Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger and aligning it with a new trend in interdisciplinary phenomenology, Ian Andrews provides a unique look at the role of chance in art and its philosophical implications. Les mer
Chance, Phenomenology and Aesthetics will appeal to scholars and advanced students in the disciplines of phenomenology, deconstruction and hermeneutics, as well as being compelling reading for anyone interested in pursuing sound studies, art theory and art history through an interdisciplinary post-phenomenological lens.

«How do we form an aesthetic that allows the things of this world to show themselves in all their chance and fleeting unexpectedness? No other recent study of phenomenological aesthetics offers such an eloquent and informative defence of the random in art and its powers of exposure.»
