Description
The Pensive Image: Art as a Form of Thinking by Hanneke Grootenboer
This book explores painting as a form of thinking in itself, rather than a subject of philosophical and interpretive thought. Grootenboer argues that traditional approaches to art have overlooked the implicit and inexpressible qualities of paintings.
Through fluid prose, she examines various modalities of visual thinking, including the location where thought should be found, as a refuge for reflection, and an encounter that provokes thought. By considering painting as a form of thinking, Grootenboer demonstrates how artworks can shape thoughts and concepts in visual terms.
