Each chapter focuses on a contemporary artwork that links one landscape to another-from the Spanish Camino to a backyard in the Pacific Northwest, from Lourdes to South Africa, from Jerusalem to England, and from Ecuador to California. The close attention to context and experience allows for popular practices like the making of third-class or \"contact\" relics to augment conversations about the authenticity or perceived power of a replica or copy; it also challenges the tendency to think of the \"original\" in hierarchic terms. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eImaging Pilgrimage \u003c\/i\u003ebrings various fields into conversation by offering a number of lenses and theoretical approaches (materialist, kinesthetic, haptic, synesthetic) that engage objects as radical sites of encounter, activated through religious and ritual praxis, and negotiated with not just the eyes, but a multiplicity of senses.","brand":"Bloomsbury Visual Arts","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45084401827991,"sku":"9781501335013","price":12079.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781501335013.webp?v=1767636799","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/imaging-pilgrimage-representations-of-sacred-space-in-contemporary-art-9781501335013","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
