Sommario/riassunto

This book explores the pervasive nature of socially responsible behavior, which has evolved beyond Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) to become an integral part of all organizational activities and investments. It presents how socially responsible decision-making is now embedded within the core operations of organizations globally. Despite the widespread recognition of its importance, there remains a significant gap in understanding the practical effects of such behavior. This book aims to bridge that gap by providing a comprehensive analysis of the real-world impacts of social responsibility. Taking a global perspective, the book investigates the practical outcomes of socially responsible actions across various countries and sectors. It explores how organizations worldwide implement and benefit from these practices, offering a rich tapestry of observations and insights. By examining a diverse range of fields, the book presents a holistic view of the effects of socially responsible behavior, highlighting both successes and challenges. Through its detailed analysis and global scope, this book offers valuable contributions to the ongoing discourse on social responsibility. It provides readers with a deeper understanding of how socially responsible practices are applied in different contexts and their tangible impacts. Whether you are a scholar, practitioner, or policymaker, this book serves as an essential resource for anyone interested in the practical implications of social responsibility in today’s interconnected world.

Sommario/riassunto

Today, the moving image is ubiquitous in global contemporary art. The first book to tell the story of the postwar expanded cinema that inspired this omnipresence, Between the Black Box and the White Cube travels back to the 1950s and 1960s, when the rise of television caused movie theaters to lose their monopoly over the moving image, leading cinema to be installed directly alongside other forms of modern art. Explaining that the postwar expanded cinema was a response to both developments, Andrew V. Uroskie argues that, rather than a formal or technological innovation, the key change for artists involved a displacement of the moving image from the familiarity of the cinematic theater to original spaces and contexts. He shows how newly available, inexpensive film and video technology enabled artists such as Nam June Paik, Robert Whitman, Stan VanDerBeek, Robert Breer, and especially Andy Warhol to become filmmakers. Through their efforts to



explore a fresh way of experiencing the moving image, these artists sought to reimagine the nature and possibilities of art in a post-cinematic age and helped to develop a novel space between the "black box" of the movie theater and the "white cube" of the art gallery. Packed with over one hundred illustrations, Between the Black Box and the White Cube is a compelling look at a seminal moment in the cultural life of the moving image and its emergence in contemporary art.
