For him, the Mannerist work is intended to create awe and wonder, inviting the viewer to question the technical process, a combination of intelligence and manual skill, that made it possible to realise in this specific form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs his newly discovered papers and unpublished manuscripts testify, \u003cem\u003etechnē\u003c\/em\u003e and Mannerism are far from being Klein's only preoccupations. Other concepts have been studied with great originality by Klein, such as mnemonic art, \u003cem\u003eparagone\u003c\/em\u003e, dream, and responsibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis book, proceeding from a conference organised by Villa I Tatti, Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florence, and the Institut national d'histoire de l'art (INHA) in Paris, sheds light on Klein's investigations as well as on the intellectual journey of an important art historian and philosopher of the past century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47471466873068,"sku":"9780674294219","price":78.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780674294219-robert-klein.jpg?v=1775244597"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/alessandro-nova.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
