Description
How can works of the imagination help us to understand good and evil in the modern world? In this new collection of essays, Alex Danchev treats the artist as a crucial moral witness of our troubled times, and puts art to work in the service of political and ethical inquiry.
A distinctive mix of art and politics, addressing a tremendous range of ethical, artistic and political questions. Engages with fundamental, and controversial, issues of international life: terror, torture, secrecy, privacy, memory and identity.
