Titmarsh Mark. Expanded Painting: Ontological Aesthetics and the Essence of Colour

Bloomsbury Academic, 2019. — 240 р. — ISBN: 978-1350101999.The relevance of painting has been questioned many times over the last century, by the arrival of photography, installation art and digital technologies. But rather than accept the death of painting, Mark Titmarsh traces a paradoxical interface between this art form and its opposing forces to define a new practice known as 'expanded painting' giving the term historical context, theoretical structure and an important place in contemporary practice. As the formal boundaries tumble, the being of painting expands to become a kind of total art incorporating all other media including sculpture, video and performance.
