Jyrki Siukonen : Hammer and Silence

Jyrki Siukonen explores the silent, manual processes behind artistic work and the philosophy of tool use. This updated English edition offers new insights into the philosophy of making art.
Suitable for: For those interested in hands-on art practice, the philosophy of making, and academic perspectives on creativity.
Should we make sense of what we are doing? Anyone who has ever pondered everyday studio practice will recognize the special difficulty of explaining the simple manual actions involved in artistic work. This historical study proposes to look at those wordless procedures that usually escape our attention when we engage in art and creativity. Touching on practical issues in philosophy, such as the simultaneity of doing, talking and tooling, Hammer and Silence will appeal to a hands-on audience in art and academia.
