Chromatic Weaves Color through rule and perception in the Work of Anni Albers copia

2026, Color Colture and Science / Cultura e Scienza del Colore

In the early 20th century, the Bauhaus, as heir to the artistic avant-garde, left a profound mark on the history of color in the arts. Its artists developed a “chromatic imprinting”, which led them to apply color according to recurring methods and principles, revealing striking chromatic similarities across their works.
This paper investigates the role of color in the work of Anni Albers, a central figure in the Bauhaus Weaving Workshop. She overcame gender inequality to become a pioneering artist, designer, writer, and educator, whose influence spans various fields, from fashion to graphic arts. While her work on weaving is well-known and widely recognized, her exploration of the synthesis between material, structure, and color has received less scholarly attention. Her pictorial weavings are an inseparable fusion of matter and color, elevating the loom from the realm of applied arts to the artistic one, making her a pioneer of Fiber Art. The themes of weaving, interlacing, rhythm, variation, and harmony transcend aesthetics, unfolding through a synesthetic approach that appeals to both tactile and chromatic perception, in a sensory as well as intellectual levels.
This article seeks to revisit Albers’s work through a chromatic lens, from the color sensibility inherited from the Bauhaus to her later explorations at Black Mountain College. The goal is to analyze how the cultural and artistic education of her time influenced her chromatic choices, in the interplay between structure, material, and color, and to identify the elements that have inspired contemporary visual languages.

“È evidente che alcune delle più frequenti attribuzioni di immaterialità sembrano tutt’altro che convincenti. È discutibile, per esempio, definire immateriale il software. A ben guardare il software è una tecnologia,
ossia uno strumento cognitivo che in modo diretto e indiretto costruisce, a conti fatti, i mutamenti senza dubbio di natura materiale.”1 Così, circa trenta anni fa, in Reale e virtuale, Tomàs Maldonado introduceva una singolare apertura al pensiero di un autore notoriamente dedito alla fantascienza: “Stanislav Lem ha elaborato una articolata (e provocatoria) teoria sulle cause e sugli effetti di questa strana predilezione della cultura moderna per i costrutti illusori con funzione vicaria, sostitutiva e addirittura alternativa nei confronti della realtà. Fantasmologia è il nome che, non a caso, Lem ha dato alla sua teoria. Per giunta, egli ha proposto, in stretta connessione con la teoria, anche una tecnica (a essere più esatti una metatecnica): la Fantasmatica”2. Fantasmologia e fantasmatica, pertanto, come ampi dispositivi capaci anche oggi di indagare e distinguere i simulacri dagli eventi stessi. Utili, se non necessari, al confronto di lemmi come spirito e zoo, architettura effimera e monumentale, teatro e deriva, psicogeografie e happening, gabbie e pareidolie.

At the time it closed in 1947, Middlesex University School of Medicine (MUSOM) in Waltham, Massachusetts was one of the few American medical schools that did not restrict the enrollment of Jews, who reportedly comprised 85 percent of its students. This school also welcomed students and faculty forced to flee Nazi-occupied Europe, and at least twenty-one faculty and eleven student refugees were offered sanctuary there during the Nazi period. Though Middlesex was an oasis from antisemitism, prevalent anti-Jewish attitudes and practices
of its time may have caused its demise. After its forced closure, the school’s property was donated to the founders of a new Jewish-led university.

However, due to constraints on teaching positions and limitations of educational resources, a mismatch has emerged between demand and supply, which affects the teaching quality of public aesthetic education courses. Establishing a systematic framework and process for art majors to participate in the auxiliary teaching of public aesthetic education courses in an orderly manner can, to a certain extent, alleviate the shortage of teachers. This not only improves teaching quality but also contributes to the all-round development of all students. Ensuring that auxiliary teachers are competent, capable of self-improvement, and truly fulfill their role as a“ link” is essential to maintaining the normal and efficient operation of this process. While universities can draw on the proposed curriculum model in their practice, they should also adapt and innovate in light of their own specific conditions.)

Axonometry is a graphic technique for rendering three-dimensional forms on a planar surface. Useful in engineering and architecture, it can convey accurate proportions and angles without the distortions of perspectival drawing. This technique, and the geometries that it produces, appear in several works by Anni Albers and Lena Bergner, both of whom attended the Bauhaus Weaving Workshop and later pursued textile design abroad (Albers in the U.S. and Bergner in the USSR and Mexico). This paper examines the relationship between textile construction and axonometry in Albers’ and Bergner’s respective oeuvres, arguing that their instruction at the Bauhaus—including their coursework with Paul Klee—trained them to value what Albers termed “linkage.” While “fusion,” for Albers, blurs separate parts into a homogenous whole, “linkage” ensures that the multiple components of a design remain distinguishable when combined.

This thesis engages the historical site of Black Mountain College through the lens of Félix Guattari’s Three Ecologies. In this study, I appropriate Guattari’s tripartite ecosophy as a means through which to engage the environmental life and environmental being of Black Mountain College. Read in this way, the College—more than the mythic and near-utopic idea that preoccupies its image today—becomes a grounded illustration of Guattari’s ecological vision, thus providing us entrance into the historical actuality of Guattari’s lamentably unexplored ecosophy. By examining particular instances of Black Mountain’s communal, artistic, and environmental processes, I am able to show how Black Mountain College created a structure of environmental life that afforded its participants entrance into a seemingly nascent form of environmental being.

Gothic Black Mountain: abject matter in Michael Rumaker's Black Mountain Days (2003)

Of all the aesthetics circulating through the institutional memory of Black Mountain College, the Gothic is hardly a familiar touchstone. Functionalism, abstraction, modernism, atonality, pragmatism—these are not conceptual containers roomy enough for werewolves or vampires, nor would they suffer gargoyles perched on their meticulously crafted lines. This paper, however, attends to narrative accounts of the College that use Gothic imagery to represent the pedagogical encounter. Drawing on Julia Kristeva’s theorisation of ‘the abject’, I contend that memoirs by Michael Rumaker and Fielding Dawson seize upon what is ‘jettisoned’ by the forward push of progressive education, shining a light on contradictions that both threaten and constitute Black Mountain mythologies.
In these accounts, the Appalachian landscape is an eerie incursion into a besieged community; a cipher for repressed legacies of violence that subtend the attempt to ground a more democratic national imaginary. If Xanti Shawinsky once described College pedagogy as ‘taking a crack at the whole man,’ Charles Olson’s vampiric appetites bring the implicit horror of ‘total education’ to the fore, as Oedipal crises interrupt tales of holistic personal renewal. Ghosts and gore haunt Rumaker’s and Dawson’s narratives: both fascinated and repulsed by sick bodies, rejected manuscripts and libidinal confusion, their Gothic lexicons deepen and undermine organicist models of individual development.
By attending to these tropes, I propose ‘Gothic Black Mountain’ not as a unified aesthetic movement but as a tonal frequency that permeates the College’s claims to futurity. I want to ask: what counter-narratives emerge when we exhume the horrific, the repressed or the abjected?; how do fear and trembling trouble the role of the senses in forging artistic, autonomous individuals?; and to what extent does a Gothic Black Mountain help us understand the latent perturbations of American post-war national consciousness?

This chapter builds upon an analysis of the close connections between Chekhov's practices and those of collaborative playwriting that were developed later in the twentieth century, as well as the 'new dramaturgy' that has emerged in the early twenty-first. It proposes, in brief, a new pathway for Chekhov's technique in the training, study and practice of dramaturgs and collaborative playwrights and the theorizing of dramaturgy that underpins their work. In order to achieve this, I seek ways of both breaking open Chekhov's practice to reveal some of its essential dramaturgical principles and fundamentally transforming it by challenging some of the cultural assumptions that shape both his techniques and the language in which they are articulated. I aim, thereby, to effect a kind of Hegelian sublation of Chekhovian practice, so that it is both negated and carried over in the creation of the new pathway that I seek to establish with and for it. This process unfolds in three phases in this chapter. The first asserts the basis for this new pathway for Chekhovian practice by analysing significant points of intersection between practices developed at the Chekhov Theatre Studio between 1936 and 1942 and those of twenty-first-century dramaturgs and collaborative playwrights. The second section develops a proposal for the development of practices in this new pathway by exploring the application of Chekhov's technique to the dramaturgical training and development of theatre-makers for collaborative playwriting. This section draws upon the materials gathered in the Michael Chekhov Theatre Studio Deirdre Hurst du Prey Archive and the findings of my own practice research. This was principally undertaken from 2014 to 2016 in collaboration with playwright and performer Hannah Davies and our company Common Ground Theatre, based in York. During this period, we made four new productions, written by Davies in collaboration with me as the director and the performers. Of particular relevance for this study is our 2015 production of Demons, an adaptation of Dostoyevsky's novel, which was created using some of the same techniques used by the Chekhov Theatre Studio in their adaptation of the same novel as The Possessed (1939). I also draw, here, on the findings of the 2016 New Pathways Praxis Symposium on Michael Chekhov, Collaborative Playwriting and

his essay examines the work of Piermario Ciani, a key figure in the Italian underground scene, through his archive now preserved at the Mart Museum in Rovereto. The focus is on his production of fanzines and self-published materials, tracing a trajectory from his early graphic and comic experiments (115/220, Onda 400) to his collaborations with Vittore Baroni (50%, Trax), up to the desktop publishing experiments of Unexpected Communication and the editorial initiatives of AAA Edizioni.
Drawing on a largely unpublished body of materials, the article highlights Ciani’s role as a true “subverter of languages”: an artist who blended underground comics, post-punk music, Mail Art, digital graphics, and neo-Situationist practices. His archive reveals self-publishing as a fertile ground for aesthetic and cultural experimentation, marking a crucial transition from DIY paper-based practices to the digital revolution of the 1980s–1990s.

In the 1930s, Zen Buddhism was hardly known outside Japan. By the 1960s, it had become by far the most popular form of Buddhism in Europe and the United States. Its popularity was born from the general belief that Zen responded to the psychological and religious needs of the individual without incurring the criticisms customarily levelled against religion. Zen was imagined as a practical spirituality that accepted all religions and religious symbols as expressions of a universal psychological truth. Zen was not itself a religion, but a ‘super-religion’ that had understood the inner mechanics of the psyche’s natural religion-making function. Three authors in particular, namely D. T. Suzuki, Friedrich Spiegelberg and Alan Watts, were pivotal in the formation of this narrative. Using Jung’s psychological model as their conceptual basis, they promoted a vision of Zen Buddhism that laid the foundations for the ‘Zen Boom’ of the 1950s and 60s. This article will examine the pivotal role pl...

By centring ceramics, Jenni Sorkin's book Live Form: Women, Ceramics, and Community offers a new, and vital, history of the development of art in the United States in the decades following the Second World War. Working against a widespread tendency to treat ceramics as something outside the development of post-war avant-garde artistic practices, Sorkin casts it as 'a parallel medium'. Sorkin explains, 'ceramics offered a tantalizing proximity to the avant-garde movements of the era, including, but not limited to, abstract expressionism, Happenings, experimental music, minimalism, and […] even video art' (p. 3). Sorkin goes on to flip this script; in the pages of Live Form, avant-garde movements of the era develop in 'tantalizing proximity' to ceramics. By recalibrating the centre of gravity, Sorkin directs our attention away from Josef Albers, Joseph Beuys, John Cage -or, 'the ABCs, in effect', as Sorkin writes, of 'the masterful, male pedagogical narrative' of post-war art -and towards a constellation of women artists who worked beside traditional structures and institutions

For the realm of higher education and the arts in the 20th-century United States,Black Mountain College was a unique liberal arts institution. Through its distinctive talent cultivation concepts and models,the college shaped a group of pioneering and creative artistic talents. As an important institution for talent cultivation, a university's educational philosophy forms the theoretical connotation of its talent cultivation model and plays a guiding role in the design, formulation, and implementation of its educational programs. Black Mountain College's educational philosophy has three sources: John Dewey's pragmatic educational philosophy, the progressive education movement, and the professional art education of the Bauhaus. The combination of American educational movements and European modern art education reform trends constitutes the theoretical foundation of Black Mountain College's educational philosophy and is reflected in all aspects of its educational activities.

Questo libro raccoglie alcuni scritti elaborati in occasioni e tempi diversi. I contributi affrontati e proposti rientrano all’interno di una stessa cornice teorica e pratica che riguarda il rapporto architettura-città. Gli autori hanno inteso interrogarsi attorno ad una precisa questione che riguarda i modi di costruire la città del proprio tempo.
Questo moto verso i modi del progetto si misura con il tema della rigenerazione urbana, termine che appare tuttavia inadeguato per rispondere alle necessità di forma dell’architettura. Si potrebbe così accostare l’espressione rigenerazione urbana alla parola ricostruzione che sembra meglio incontrare le aspettative di forma dell’architettura.
Questa prospettiva considera importante ritrovare un rapporto di continuità con le forme della città storica. In questo senso la relazione architettura-città guarda al progetto come diretta conseguenza di una consapevole e critica relazione tra nuovo e vecchio, intendendo nella parola ricostruzione l’arte di ricostruire i caratteri propri della città storica.

In the 19th century, a gradual reform of art education began, which achieved its peak in the 1930s. This process manifested itself in the form of schools with an explicit anti-academic spirit -the Bauhaus in Europe and Black Mountain College in the United States. In this paper, I contend that such attempt at reform has never repeated again after the Black Mountain College case, where the combination of John Dewey's educational principles, Josef Albers' peculiar conception of art instruction, and the college founders' ideas concerning the essentiality of art for contemporary democratic societies created a unique environment for the development of an experimental form of art education. Examining this innovation with regard to the current situation of teaching art and the humanities, I argue that -despite a process of reform lasted more than a hundred years -art education still manifests residues of the old, conservative academic spirit, while art schools show features of exclusivity or even elitism. The pursuit for a wholesome social position of art, on the other hand, was the most striking endeavour of many brilliant thinkers in 19th and 20th century (e.g. Semper, Morris, Lichtwark, Dewey, Albers), something that art educators and art theoreticians of the 21st century must take this into a serious consideration.

that were going to college. And unfortunately for me, my father didn't have the money to send me away to college. We had a lot of children in my family and so it was a difficult decision. And not only that, I didn't like school at the time, so I had to go. (Laughs) When you're drafted you have to show up! (Chuckles again). HP: That's understandable. So, um, where were you living at the time? PJ: I was living In Grand Rapids, Michigan, the house I was born in. HP: Wow. PJ: (Laughs jovially) yeah. HP: (Laughs with Pastor Jerry) your whole life! PJ: Yes. HP: (laughter falters away) so what branch did you choose? PJ: I did not choose, they choose for you, you are drafted into the army. And if you enlisted, you can make a choice of another branch that you want to go into. HP: Oh, I thought it was like when they draft you, you can pick between you know A B C and D. PJ: No, they select all of that for you (laughs at the end). HP: (Feeling quite dumb) Oh. Well which one were you selected into? PJ: The army. HP: The army? PJ: Mmhmm. HP: Okay (laughs) where did you serve? PJ: I went to Fort Knox, Kentucky, for my basic training and after eight weeks of training, I was given a short leave to come home and then sent to Fort Jackson, South Carolina, where I learned to be an advanced infantrymen, one that is more proficient where you learn to operate more weapons, the things I explained to you in the email.

Black Mountain College Black Mountain College (BMC) 1933-1957, was a significant convergence of art, design, and literary education in the United States. Its beginnings were ignited by John Dewey's theories of education. Philosophers, scientists, poets, literary and social theorists, designers, musicians, and artists came to Black Mountain in the spirit of inner freedom and collective education.
Unlike other Modernist design foundation programs, the educational influence from Black Mountain College is less distinct and marginally evident in today’s design education. Such individuals as John Andrew Rice, Joseph and Anni Albers, and others are discussed, including their impact on pedagogy at BMC. The essay uncovers education at BMC its many faceted lessons—which are clarified and reduced to principles intended to influence beginning design education. The essay concludes with speculations on the position and role of design education more generally.

Hicks: You had to use them? Mah: No. Everyone was amazed that I didn't have to use them. That was in the summer and we perspired so much so I guess I didn't have any extra liquid to get rid of.

This article explores how two contemporary abstract artists - Piet Mondrian and Josef Albers - composed their abstract art following musical grammar (particularly of Bach's fugues and jazz music) rather than developments in visual art. But how did they go about? Do these fellow artists share similar views on 'how to paint music' or are they different?
In addition this text traces the origins of 'synaesthesia' and 'audition coloree'; a phenomenon in which the stimulation of one sensory domain leads to the experience of other sensory impressions. Theosophy, art and science were fundamental for the dissemination of this idea (or rather lived experience) which was fundamental for the emergence of abstract art.
This article was translated from Dutch by Sue McDonnell. Its source is the exhibition catalogue 'Joseph and Anni Albers' (ed. Frouke van Dijke, 2023, Waanders Publishing). The exhibition was held at Kunstmuseum Den Haag in collaboration with the Albers Foundation.

「新表演轉向」的藝術史論述差異及問題 —— 從「身體政治」的關注轉向「社會編舞」的操演性

過去二十年間,表演藝術家經常受邀在藝術展覽中展示他們的「表演」
(Performance),這已成為美術館和藝術雙年展的一種趨勢,引發了當代藝術中「新表演轉向」(New Performance Turn)的現象。本文探討不同學者對這一現象的藝術史發展基礎的看法。⻄方學者傾向關注表演進入視覺藝術領域時所帶來的意義,例如「編舞、組織、展覽場域和生產模式」,而非⻄方學者則更關注戰後以來「行為藝術」(Performance Art)中涉及的「身體政治」和「行動主義」等前衛力量。這種差異性揭示了一個事實:各地不同時期的表演轉向性質並不一致,戰後非⻄方的「行為身體命題」更趨向於涉及後殖⺠文化體制、主體性問題、社會道德和政治現實。
本文試圖從非⻄方觀點補充對「新表演轉向」的理解,並反思將此現象假設在二戰後「行為藝術」前衛基礎上發展的適切性。當今的「新表演轉向」是否真的可以被視為早期「行為藝術」某種「新」美學形式的延伸呢?從1960年代起,藝術展覽場域中的生命體和當今「表演」在博物館中的情況並不相同。在現代藝術史上,「身體行為」是對現存體制的挑戰,但當今新形式的「表演」更關注於展覽空間中的社交性能量。最終,本文提議當今的「新表演轉向」實際上是將表演中的操演性(Performativity)視為「新的策展和組織意義的工具」,更貼近安德魯.赫維特(Andrew Hewitt)提出的「社會編舞」(Social Choreography)概念,關注如何有效地在展覽場域中激活感知、體驗和社交情境。
關鍵字:新表演轉向、行為藝術、身體政治、操演性、社會編舞、情境

This is a recording of an interview with Mrs. Socorro Perez. She lives at 7911 Monterrey, in El Paso, Texas. The date is Monday, March 3, 2003. The interviewer is Richard Baquera, and this interview is for the Bracero Oral History Project. RB: Let's just begin with, would you please tell me your name and birthday? SP: I was born here in El Paso, at Thomason Hospital, about sixty-one, some years [ago]. RB: Your maiden name? SP: My maiden name is Socorro Christina Ortiz Perez. I started school-RB: What part of town were you born in? SP: I was born at Thomason. My mother and my grandmother used to live in the second ward. RB: Do you remember the address? SP: It was Park Street, in front of the little park that was on presidio there. Right now, it's renovated; it's got government projects. Then when I was about five, we moved up to North El Paso [Street], so we started school at Morehead. RB: Do you remember the address there? SP: North El Paso Street, it was a hill, homes were there just across from Providence [Hospital], more or less, a little bit over here on the mountains, where there was a mountain, and it was North El Paso Street at the time. Now, it's changed, I think the name has changed. Anyway, I started Morehead, first grade, second grade, that was at my grandmother's house. Then we moved back to second ward, with just the five of us and my mother. My mother was a widow. RB: How many brothers and sisters? SP: I've got three brothers, and my sister, and I. RB: And you are oldest? Youngest? SP: I'm the second oldest, just a year apart. My brother and I are three years apart. My sister and I are one year apart. Then my brothers, five years apart from us, then two, one year apart also.

In this text, I investigate the relationship between pragmatism and Black Mountain College. Rather than looking for possible influences, however, I take the pragmatic revision between theory and practice as a starting point in order to discern the patterns of interference or resonances between the philosophy of pragmatism and the institutional and educational practices of Black Mountain College. I am primarily interested in those systematic aspects of pragmatism that find expression in transdisciplinary experiments like Black Mountain College, as well as in those aspects of Black Mountain’s practice that can be read as pragmatic, such as the primacy of method. After developing an understanding of the pragmatist’s emphasis on the primacy of practice as a primacy of method, I focus on BMC’s director John Andrew Rice’s Socratic method of teaching philosophy as well as former Bauhaus artist Xanti Schawinsky’s experimentation with theater as a form of transdisciplinary philosophy.

Showing Up (dir. Kelly Reichardt, 2022) ofrece una crítica profunda sobre el valor del proceso creativo y el rol de la comunidad en el contexto del capitalismo tardío, donde predominan el individualismo y la inmediatez. Con una estética de tomas largas y una atención especial a los detalles de la creación, Reichardt plantea una visión alternativa de la práctica artística, una que subraya la persistencia y el acompañamiento mutuo frente a un sistema que tiende a invisibilizar estos aspectos.

The paper looks at experimental alternative education systems to explore different approaches to pedagogical theories of post-secondary education. The paper focuses on the story of Rochdale College, an experimental free-form college and communal housing project associated with the University of Toronto between 1968 and 1975. The aims, theories and methods of Rochdale College are contextualized by an examination of two theorists on alternative education: John Dewey and Paul Goodman. The theories of Dewey and Goodman are explored through a brief examination of two experimental colleges that preceded Rochdale: The Experimental College (at Tufts University from 1927-32) and Black Mountain College in North Carolina (active from 193357). Ideas regarding alternative forms of education were integrated into socio-political ideas from the 1960s counterculture movement in America and Canada, and a major test site for a form of counterculture education was the controversial experiment called Ro...

Stefano Musso è lo storico italiano che ha dato continuità agli studi di storia del lavoro dagli anni settanta ad oggi, coltivandoli anche in stagioni di generale disinteresse da parte della cultura accademica e politica. Dai primi studi sugli operai torinesi del primo Novecento alla Storia del lavoro in Italia dall’Unità ad oggi (2002), fino ai contributi più recenti, Musso ha tenuto aperta e continuamente rinnovato una tradizione di ricerca rigorosa e appassionata sui mondi operai e dell’impresa, sul movimento sindacale e sulle politiche pubbliche del lavoro. In questi saggi raccolti in occasione del suo pensionamento da professore dell’Università di Torino, studiose e studiosi di diverse generazioni rendono omaggio al suo insegnamento scientifico e umano, in un tributo che è anche un impegno a continuare nel solco da lui tracciato.

I would like to begin by thanking my supervisor, Peter Minter, for his patience, generosity and skill in guiding the focus of this thesis. His input and inspiration have been vital in discerning and developing a sense of direction from an initially tangled array of ideas. His concept of "transnational projectivism" has been fundamental to my understanding of Charles Olson's poetry and poetics when viewed from the contexts within which this thesis operates. Specifically, as a result of his supervision, I have been privileged to receive insights into approaching the knowledge and wisdom contained in Aboriginal Australian culture. It is with this is mind that I would also like to extend my respect to all Indigenous people named in this thesis: writers, academics and custodians of Country, past and present. Gratitude is also due to my assistant supervisor, Mark Byron, for indicating the transnational potential of my work, and for encouraging me to participate more widely in the academic community, both here at the University of Sydney and overseas. I would also like to thank both David Brooks and Bernadette Brennan for inspiration: David introduced me to Olson's poetry through a series of inspirational seminars, and both he and Bernadette lent their support to my application when the ideas for the thesis were in their formative stages. Thanks also to Bruce Gardiner, who kindly and proactively provided advice when the thesis was at a critical stage. I would like to acknowledge the work done by all the staff within the Department of English, the School of Literature, Arts and Media and the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, which has helped facilitate the progress of the thesis, and afforded me the opportunity to contribute to the field of study. I remain grateful for the funding that has enabled me to travel and participate at conferences both within Australia and abroad, both from the university and the Commonwealth of Australia, and it is to the latter that I am indebted for the Australian Postgraduate Award, which enabled me to undertake research on a full-time basis. v More broadly, I would like to acknowledge and thank members of the international academic community, whose input has provided motivation and inspiration at various stages of my research. Foremost among these is the late Ralph Maud, for the warmth of his welcome to the field of Olson studies. I would also like to thank Jeffrey Gardiner, whose comments on my paper presented at the American Literary Association conference were perceptive and of great assistance in understanding Olson's later poetics. Gary Grieve-Carlson, who chaired the panel for my initial presentation to the association, provided sources that have also been helpful for my work. My thanks also go out to Melissa Watterworth-Batt, curator at the Olson archive at the University of Connecticut, for her kind assistance during the stimulating and productive time I spent there. Finally, a sense of appreciation beyond that which words can adequately express is reserved for family: Katinka and Barney Pree, for their unconditional love and consistent moral support, and to my wife, Aya Murasawa, for looking after me in so many ways during this time. I dedicate this thesis to the memory of my father, Barry Pree, who taught me how to love reading, and in remembrance of Alan Seymour, whose friendship saw me through so much. This one's for the both of you. vi

Can unpublished papers from decades ago help us think about contemporary critical theories of organization? In this special issue, we bring together six papers by the social philosopher, organization theorist and poet Robert Cooper (1931-2013) that were hitherto not widely available. Cooper was a prominent theorist of organization, known for introducing postmodernism and post-structuralism to organization studies. He has also been highly influential in process studies of organization. We think that what Cooper learned from avant-garde poetry was that form ought to reflect the content, and this is evident in his writing. The content finds its form in the text – and it can only find this form through an openness that lies at the heart of research, in organization studies and elsewhere.

The writings of Cage's acknowledged mentor in Zen Buddhism, D.T. Suzuki, reveal a more complex picture of Zen than Cage himself tended to describe. This essay considers several of these writings in order to articulate an approach to listening and analysis based in Zen, which is then used to explore two compositions with very different sonic profiles, Music for Piano 21 (1955) and One 5 (1990). My findings suggest a wide range of audible relationships in Cage's music as well as an ethical dimension to analysis related to Joan Retallack's concept of poethics.

The oeuvre of Ilmira Bagautdinova is devoted to a new condition of artistic freedom. Her «living art» is about the redefinition of the logic of materials and the space of the canvas, as well as attempt to resolve the traditional oppositions of form and content, purposes and means.
Ilmira Bagautdinova, with her non-trivial approach to creating paintings with the help of pointe shoes while dancing, defines physicality as the First Cause of fantasies and manias, desires and impulses, as well as free associations. All this gives rise to experimental, «living art», as you wish, which exists at the intersection of visual art and ballet.
