This is a treatise on what makes art art, told in graphic novel form.
What is “Art”? It’s widely accepted that art serves an important function in society. But the concept falls under such an absurdly large umbrella and can manifest in so many different ways. Art can be self indulgent, goofy, serious, altruistic, evil, or expressive, or any number of other things. But how can it truly make lasting, positive change? In Why Art?, acclaimed graphic novelist Eleanor Davis (How To Be Happy) unpacks some of these concepts in ways both critical and positive, in an attempt to illuminate the highest possible potential an artwork might hope to achieve. A work of art unto itself, Davis leavens her exploration with a sense of humor and a thirst for challenging preconceptions of art worth of Magritte, instantly drawing the reader in as a willing accomplice in her quest. Black & white illustrations throughout.

忘標記這本瞭。去年這個時候讀的,總結一下就是裝置套裝置,很玩味性質的作品。Eleaner Davis沒有給art下定義,沒有敘事利落的故事,也沒有作有條理的分析,但整部作品都是被簡簡單單的人文主義包圍的。
評分People build a world that reflects their best hope. And when they ruin it, the reacts they receive may teach them what they need to learn to become better. That’s what art could do.
評分一般一般罷
評分充滿藝術傢自省氣息的漫畫,前半部分還以為是藝術評論,但後半部分開始齣現的劇情還是挺有意思的。黑白的內頁加上俄羅斯套娃的故事,討論的還是關於自我認知的問題。
評分not get clear idea about the book. Can't fully understand it.
