ArtsSection
The idea of TheArtsSection is to provide a forum for the discussion of art, artists, and the ideas of artists. Our intention is to make this journal an outlet for more than what Thomas Kuhn famously called ‘normal science’: the never ending spiral of puzzle-solving of the academic enterprise. For TheArtsSection we encourage submissions and proposals from all walks of intellectual life: essays, reports, letters, and diaries. In 23(2) Martin van Hees discussed a philosophical issue embedded in a Bob Dylan song; in 23(1) Bruno Frey wrote about cultural tourism; and in 22(3) Nicola Atkinson.Davidson published a diary of an exhibition. All that counts is that the contributions or proposals contain inspiration and experimentation – in Nicola’s case, a Los Angeles motel cleaning woman found her work beautiful and this opened her mind to ‘other possibilities in life’. In 23(3), Monika Mokre published a photograph and a reflection on the nature of art and politics entitled, ‘This is not Art’.
