Why should this be art? Did you come for the sake of the art? What is the context around this art? These questions may arise as you explore this book, prompting a shift in your perception of art interpretation. Art historian Angeli Janhsen encourages readers to discover their own paths to understanding art, avoiding conventional institutional guides like audio tours and museum labels. Each individual's experience with art is unique, and Janhsen’s questions are designed to provoke thought and stimulate personal engagement. This book invites readers to seek answers while also encouraging them to pose their own questions. As a professor at the Institute of Art History at the University of Freiburg, Janhsen creates a space for notes and reflections, fostering dialogue rather than merely serving as a guide. It raises awareness of art in a subtle manner, steering clear of condescension while examining its own assumptions. While 19th-century art history focused on classification, contemporary discourse emphasizes open inquiry, where questioning is paramount—second only to the act of seeing art itself.
