What Is an Image? - The Stone Art Theory Institutes
James Elkins-Maja Naef
Brings together historians, philosophers, critics, postcolonial theorists, and curators to ask how images, pictures, and paintings are conceptualized. Issues discussed include concepts such as “image” and “picture” in and outside the West; semiotics; whether images are products of discourse; religious meanings; and the ethics of viewing.
