How Art Works: Of Questions and Answers

Art develops its effect through
contemplation. Even before we interpret it, we grasp it by means of
inspired seeing, by "feeling our way," thus giving rise to an opinion.
It precedes an interpretation of the content--and the interplay of form
and content becomes the experience of art. Unlike classic guidebooks,
this publication is dedicated to the aesthetic experience, which the
comparative contemplation and presentation of masterpieces from the
Gem ldegalerie and Bode Museum focuses on beyond the boundaries of art
forms. The sensual experience of art via forms, surfaces, materiality,
movement, and their significance is curated for readers based on some
fifty selected works over various epochs and clearly communicated in
numerous close-up photographs.
