Ikonische Formprozesse: Zur Philosophie des Unbestimmten in Bildern (Image Word Action / Bild Wort Aktion / Imago Sermo Actio 3)

by Marion Lauschke (editor), Johanna Schiffler (Editor), Franz Engel (Editor)

The term iconic form processes refers to phenomena that produce transitions between natural and symbolic forms. For example, the fire-scarred surface of a bronze artwork produces effects transcending the realm of artistic intention. When a work is created and perceived, the genesis of the image also invariably involves a “recession into the implicit” (John Dewey). This volume furnishes the foundations for a theory of iconic form processes.
