Publisher Description: Develops an alternative to the eighteenth-century aesthetic of disinterestedness. Centering on the notion of participatory engagement in the appreciation of art, this work explores its appearance in art and in aesthetic perception. It examines the ways in which art entices us into intimate participation in its workings. |
