Mechanism of Meaning

A creative and dynamic volume by Arakawa and Gins, who have been called the most philosophical of living artists, which collects their writings and art work from a period of nearly two decades. They address the essential art query of our time: How does it all fit together? Art and science happens in fragments. They take fragments, and they try, by making linkages to perceiving tactics immediate, to draw these tactics, these ways of construing a demonstrably conceivable whole that are the perceiver-reader, into a unified field that they refer to as ³the perceiving field.² They propose to re-create and to rejoin fragments, and would-be fragments, so as to make a new whole.Arakawa, Shausaku is the author of 'Mechanism of Meaning', published 2001 under ISBN 9780788196041 and ISBN 0788196049.
