For Kristeva; in a world immersed in readymade images; art or aesthetic experience is a practice that constitutes both a subject (a sense of self) and an object that is able to transform meaning and consciousness. Kristeva Reframed examines key ideas in Kristevas work to show how they are most relevant to artists; and how they can be applied in interpreting artworks. With examples from the paintings of van Gogh and Picasso; the work of contemporary eminist painters; the photography of Bill Henson and the film and animation work of Van Sowerine; Estelle Barrett demonstrates how Kristeva can lluminate the relationships between artist and art object; between artists; artworks and audiences; and between art and knowledge. Through these relationships she explores what Kristevarsquo;s work reveals about the role and function of art in society and offers a smooth passage through Kristevas ideas and her relevance to visual culture.

Great Content; Poor Product QualityBy Edward H. DavidStructure and Style: The Study and Analysis of Musical FormsThis is one of the classic college textbooks for musical form. Its a shame that the new publisher; Alfred; released a product whose quality is so poor that the pages come unglued from the binding each time one turns a page. The material is fundamental to understanding this field of study; but the risk in winding up with a pile of loose pages suggests that looking for an old; used hardback copy is a better avenue for obtaining this text.
