Out of Theory / 1st Edition Korting

Over the past 30 years, the rise of art as research has brought theory to the center of art education. Out of Theory: Relational Ecologies of Theory and Practice in the Arts explores how theory can be approached in the arts and its evolving connections with other disciplines. The first part examines the dynamic relationship between theory and practice; the second presents outcomes from Polyphonic Landscapes, an artistic research project that treats theory as practice. It asks: What is a landscape? How can sonic research reshape our understanding of the environment? And how can listening foster a more embodied and reciprocal connection with the world?
