Beschreibung:
Yuriko Saito is Professor Emerita of Philosophy at the Rhode Island School of Design, USA. She is author of Everyday Aesthetics (2008) and Editor of the journal Contemporary Aesthetics.
Building upon her previous work on everyday aesthetics, Yuriko Saito argues that aesthetic and ethical concerns are intimately connected in our everyday life. She demonstrates how aesthetic experience embodies a care relationship with the world and how the ethical relationship with others, whether humans, non-human creatures, environments, or artifacts, is guided by aesthetic sensibility and manifested through aesthetic means. Weaving together insights gained from philosophy, art, design, and medicine, as well as artistic and cultural practices of Japan, she illuminates the aesthetic dimensions of various forms of care in our management of everyday life.
