Art has a way of raising questions. Since 2009 the Guggenheim Forum has pondered how themes from art affect life outside the museumrsquo;s walls: What is the role of spirituality in contemporary life? What is reality in the virtual era? And whatrsquo;s in a name? By bringing together writers; scientists; artists; and other experts from diverse fields; the Guggenheim Forum examines complex topics from all points of view; stimulating a lively dialogue among panelists. This volume gathers nine conversations from the Forumrsquo;s first four years. Participants include NPRrsquo;s Krista Tippet; designer Ellen Lupton; artist Martha Rosler; author Douglas Hofstadter; and novelist Francisco Goldman.

An invaluable resource for professional musiciansBy OboistaAn excellent resource for any practicing musician who needs to write clearly and accurately about music. The only additions that would improve this text would be more examples of complex citations. For example; citations for reprints; translations; facsimile editions; and other lengthy historical references are still not clearly enumerated.0 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
