Abstract
The intimate connections between plasticity, aesthetics, and the arts have always been acknowledged, but seldom have they been specifically investigated. This issue frames plasticity within the aesthetic discourse along three directions: firstly, by putting plasticity into contact with other aesthetic concepts, categories, and traditions. Secondly, by linking plasticity to sensation and perception, thus opening up to discourses on sensoriality, sensibility, and affects. Thirdly, by examining plasticity in the close proximity of specific artworks. Through a great number of case studies, the essays collected in this issue show the many aspects of plasticity that stem from concrete artistic phenomena.
