Therefore, the volume puts forward a mode of formalist analysis in visual cultural research which takes purchase on the idea of 'cultural form'. A continuum of formalist attention between Image analysis (visual media, industrial design) and probing of 'cultural forms' establishes the theoretical underpinning of the book. These concepts are expounded through a case study which looks at formal experimentations and debates arising from 1960s avant-garde artistic practices in London.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46930968019095,"sku":"9781032379258","price":3818.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781032379258.webp?v=1771610156","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-aesthetics-of-image-and-cultural-form-the-formal-method-9781032379258","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
