.. I got some new ones!!! Mary Douglas - Purity and Danger (I've been meaning to read that since 1999), Julia Kristeva - Powers of Horror, An essay on Abjection (hope its as good as it sounds!)Ted Orland - The view from the studio door; how artists find their way in an uncertain world (hope its as good as Art and Fear; the rewards and perils of artmaking), Dani Cavallaro - The gothic vision (bit of a random one..i'll let you know) and Leonard Koren - Wabi-Sabi for Artists, Designers, Poets and Philosphers. And the old stuff = PERFUME...its really good, you should read it...Some i started and wish i could finish; butchershop in the sky, art in theory 1900-1990, meatphysics, touching the void, blood electric, suture: the arts journal, lazy, the phenomonology of perception. A few i did manage to read from start to finish; bodies, a defence of masochism, lila says, last exit to brooklyn, the blood of strangers, to kill a mockingbird, story of o, satanskin, sleepyhead, freak like me, the sadian woman, crash, the magus. Currently pretending to read: Michel de Certeau - The Practice of Everyday Life...coz I'm trying to re-fill my head with stuff for my 'other' life ... (P.S. I got to the end of touching the void woo hoo..thanks to being on jury service!)
