This book tackles problems in contemporary art theory such as the body in space and time of digital technologies, along with other issues in visual studies and image science. Further intentions exhibit the fundamental reasons for the disappearance of the picture in the era of virtual reality starting from the notion of contemporary art as realized iconoclasm; art has no world for its "image". The author argues that the iconoclasm of contemporary art has severe consequences. This text appeals to philosophers of art and those interested in contemporary art theory.SpringerBriefs in Philosophy,2211-4556ArtPhilosophyPostmodernismCritical theoryPhilosophy of ArtTheory of ArtsPost-Modern PhilosophyCritical TheoryArtPhilosophy.Postmodernism.Critical theory.Philosophy of Art.Theory of Arts.Post-Modern Philosophy.Critical Theory.709.05Paic Zarko859244MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910495249303321Aesthetics and the Iconoclasm of Contemporary Art1949759UNINA
