This book looks at the relationship between visual artists and various disciplines of knowledge from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present day. From the publisher, "the chapters gathered here show how scientific and spiritual theories informed the evolution of abstraction, how psychoanalysis influenced the meanings and methods of Surrealism, and how in the second half of the century artists made increasingly frequent and sophisticated incursions into academic practices, including history, philosophy, economics, cybernetics, sociology, ecology, biotechnology and archival research."
