- More about Cultivating Perception through Artworks: Phenomenological Enactments of Ethics, Politics, and Culture
Helen Fielding's book "Cultivating Perception through Artworks" challenges us to think alongside and according to artworks, cultivating a perception of what is really there and being expressed by them. She draws from philosophers such as Luce Irigaray and Maurice Merleau-Ponty to urge us to trust our senses and engage relationally with works of art in the here and now. Examples include a Rembrandt painting, M. NourbeSe Philip's poetry, and Louise Bourgeois's public sculpture. Fielding reveals the importance of our moral, political, and cultural lives by engaging with different art forms and discovering the unique way that each opens us to the world in new and unexpected ways.

In Cultivating Perception through Artworks, Helen Fielding invites us to embark on a thought-provoking journey that challenges us to perceive the world through the lens of artworks. By drawing upon the insights of philosophers like Luce Irigaray and Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Fielding encourages us to trust our senses and engage meaningfully with artworks in the present moment rather than distancing and systematizing them as mere aesthetic objects. Through a diverse range of examples, including Rembrandt's painting, M. NourbeSe Philip's poetry, and Louise Bourgeois's public sculpture, Fielding showcases how artworks can enact ethical, political, and cultural dimensions. By exploring various art forms and discovering the unique ways in which they open us to the world in fresh and unexpected ways, Fielding emphasizes the significance of our moral, political, and cultural lives. This thought-provoking book encourages us to cultivate a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us by embracing the transformative power of art.
