Reviews

This impressive and comprehensive collection of original essays follows and radicalizes what David Howes called the sensory turn, deepening the analysis and hugely expanding the range of sensory and cultural phenomena that has been covered by the study of the senses in art and design until now. Malcolm Barnard, Loughborough University, UK This edited collection of essays on the relationship between the senses, arts and design is a long awaited addition to the 'sensory turn' in the arts, human and social sciences. Bringing together artists, critics and theorists, Sensory Arts and Design offers thought-provoking and challenging texts on how sensory thinking and sensory engagements underpin the cultural life of artefacts, artistic practice and design. This exciting diversity of essays provides an important resource for anyone interested in expanding their sensory knowledge within the field of art practice and design as well as those looking for inspiring creative methods. It is an essential read for anyone interested in the interactions between the senses, art and culture. Monica Degen, Brunel University London, UK
