{"product_id":"the-art-of-the-unknown","title":"The Art of the Unknown: A Visual Treasury of the Esoteric, Uncanny and Unexplained","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat does an artist do with something that cannot be explained? In The Art of the Unknown, S. Elizabeth explores the images people make at the limits of ordinary perception: celestial visions, spectral photographs and encounters with the uncanny. Historical and contemporary works sit alongside one another, inviting readers to consider how different periods have pictured mystery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNearly 200 artworks bring together figures including William Blake, Léon Spilliaert, Penny Slinger and Daniel Martin Diaz. The interest lies in their different approaches as much as their shared subjects. Symbolic imagery, strange atmospheres and elusive experiences become starting points for looking more closely, rather than puzzles with a single answer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcross 240 illustrated pages, this hardback offers a visually rich introduction to the esoteric and unexplained in art. It will appeal to readers who enjoy discovering unfamiliar images, following connections between artists and spending time with work whose meaning remains open. A thoughtful choice for an art library centred on imagination and the uncanny.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-family:inherit;font-size:1.1em;font-weight:500;\"\u003eBook Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthor \/ contributors: S.
