"Leaping gracefully from Coleridge to Kubrick, from the Bible to Baudrillard, J.F. Martel offers us a lovely and powerful reminder that the greatest art presents the world through mystery rather than manipulation. Arguing that art's prophetic promise comes from its capacity to rupture the workaday world of means and ends, Martel calls for a visionary return to the imaginal rifts of a novelty beyond artifice."-- Erik Davis, author of TechGnosis

Synopsis
A compelling call to rediscover the transformative power of art in an age of distraction, coercion, and spectacle - featuring an introduction from Pulitzer Prize-winning author Donna Tartt In Reclaiming Art in the Age of Artifice , J. F. Martel offers a compelling and incisive meditation on the nature of art in a world dominated by invasive media, rampant consumer culture, and artificial intelligence. Drawing on a wide range of examples, from Paleolithic cave art to contemporary cinema, Martel argues that true art reveals the unseen forces shaping our existence--forces that transcend politics, technology, and even culture. In contrast to artifice, which seeks to manipulate or distract, authentic art calls us back to the essence of things, opening "rifts" onto the sublime and the weird and reconnecting us with the radical mystery at the heart of the world. Featuring an introduction by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Donna Tartt, this edition also includes a new afterword by the author, reflecting on the continued relevance of art in our increasingly mediated world.

    The CD was brand new as advertised and was nicely packaged for shipment. It arrived in pristine condition. It actually arrived ahead of scheduled. I had great communication with the seller. This is a really hard to find disc and I appreciate being able to purchase it at good price. I couldn’t be happier with this transaction. This is very trustworthy seller. A++++

    Prompt notifications, vendor did a fantastic and professional job packaging, shipping, and notifying about the item's status. The received item (vinyl records) was exactly of the quality and condition, described (photos matched the received item's description and appearance). I had a very positive customer experience, which added to the item's value, and which I really appreciated. 10/10, would do business again with rarewaves-usa through Ebay!
