The Present Volume Serves Two Purposes. First, It Contains Articles Published Before 1994 That Did Not Appear In Any Collection Under His Name, Plus Ones Published Since 1994, And Therefore After Any Collection Appeared Of His Work. Second, At The Time Of His Death, He Was Assembling A Small Book, Which Comprised Two Revised Essays, The Original Versions Of Which Appeared In 1994 (on Formalism And Its Kinds) And 2001 (on Formalism And Pictorial Organisation), Plus Substantial New Material-- Provided By Publisher.
This volume investigates the breadth of Richard Wollheim’s philosophical contributions by compiling previously uncollected essays and his final, unfinished project on formalism. The editors, Gary Kemp and Elisabetta Toreno, curate these texts to provide a comprehensive view of Wollheim’s intellectual development, bridging his early work with his final inquiries into pictorial organization and aesthetic theory. By organizing these disparate writings, the book establishes a definitive record of Wollheim’s thought that remained scattered or unpublished at the time of his death.
