Description

Explore the boundaries of culture with The Outsider, Art and Humour, part of the Routledge Advances in Art and Visual Studies series. This cross-disciplinary work examines how humor functions to help us understand the arts, the concept of the outsider, and the nature of social exclusion. By looking at the edges of society, the book sheds light on the shifting social landscape, the changing nature of taste, and the limits of political correctness. Author Paul Clements uses various theoretical and analytical methods to investigate specific themes. The text moves from the basic construct of the outsider to the complex role of humor and the specific spaces occupied by Outsider Art. While the primary focus remains on the visual arts and culture, the research also draws insights from literature, film, music, and performance. This book is a valuable resource for those interested in how humor and art intersect to define our social world.
