Art practice as research : inquiry in visual arts

Graeme Sullivan (Author)
Updated and revised, Art Practice as Research presents a compelling theory that the creative and cultural inquiry undertaken by artists is a form of research. Sullivan argues that legitimate research goals can be achieved by choosing different methods than those offered by the social sciences. Artists emphasize the role of the imaginative intellect in creating, criticizing, and constructing knowledge that not only is new but also has the capacity to transform human understanding.--[book cover]
