His numerous works of philosophy are all organised around the theme of life. In contrast to the scientific understanding of life as a biological process, Henry's philosophy develops a conception of life as an immediate feeling of one's own living.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSeeing the Invisible\u003c\/em\u003e marks Henry's most sustained engagement in the field of aesthetics. Through an analysis of the life and works of Wassily Kandinsky, Henry uncovers the philosophical significance of Kandinsky's revolution in painting: that abstract art reveals the invisible essence of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHenry shows that Kandinsky separates colour and line from the constraints of visible form and, in so doing, conveys the invisible intensity of life. More than just a study of art history, this book presents Kandinsky as an artist who is engaged in the project of painting the invisible and thus offers invaluable methodological clues for Henry's own phenomenology of the invisible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47000737743084,"sku":"9781847064479","price":58.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/17372243482845.jpg?v=1763301475"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/michel-henry.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
