The aim of this exploration is not that of attempting to draw conclusions on the matter of animal representation through the medium of painting itself, but to focus on the specificities of the medium in order to understand how these can aid, address, envision or suggest new human-animal relations. In the case of painting, both issues do not present a conceptualised selection of contributions but instead aim at maintaining a very open mind about the intricacies that painting animals may unveil. Resisting a thematic curatorial approach, both issues, however provide a departure from classical representational tropes in which the non-human has for centuries been symbolically objectified. How objectification is prevented, exploited, or subverted in panting is something the selected works and texts featured in these instalments aim at mapping. As per usual, this is a very rich issue gathering a number of contributions from established and emerging academics, researchers, curators and artists. Special thanks go to all those who have contributed to the making of this ambitious project.

Musina addresses the animal not as symbolic object, but as subject, yet a subject aware of its own powerful symbolic nature; painting is interesting to the artist precisely because of this reason and its effects. These paintings are populated with “knowing animal protagonists” who stare back at the viewer with an uneasy gaze; aware of that uncomfortable places they occupy in our cultural histories--asking for compassion, mercy, or simply to be put out of their misery. Text by Chris Musina 11 A Modern-Mystic Look at Animals Growing up on the rural Delmarva Peninsula, I became acquainted with the local flora and fauna at a young age. Working at field chores, hunting, fishing, and especially when playing, my outdoors experiences were akin to the Wonderland exploits of Lewis Carroll's Alice. Carroll's premise, that "things get curiouser and curiouser," guided me through many a childhood adventure. I anthropomorphized animals and cast them as key players in an epic production of which I, too, was a part. For me, as for Alice, the natural world was enchanted and ethical in an unsentimental way. Text by Christopher Reiger 15 Animals as Wallpaper London-based artist Jessica Holmes makes mixed media paintings, where elements of collage create fields, planes and confusions of perspective that are mirrored in an inverted view of the relationship between humanity and animals. Text by Jessica Holmes 18 Witnessing Animals I am moved to paint because I am moved to see. “Seeing is forgetting the name of the thing that one sees” is a quote from the philosopher Paul Valery. This quote resonates deeply with me. To me this process of seeing is at once political and profoundly personal. It is political in its slowness, in its individuality, and its absurd inefficiency. It is personal as trying to see without “names” is deeply subjective. In painting, the time spent seeing and paying attention is important to me, especially when it is a paying attention to things that are hard to look at, things that we as a culture would rather not see. Text by Sunaura Taylor 30 Decolonizing Dog Painting I would argue that painting (object and practice) and animal representations both suffer from associations—or even as perceived expressions of—sentimentality. Why is sentimentality such a bad thing, I wonder? The modernist heritage of western societies seems certainly to have vilified all that is non-rational, un-Enlightenment, and, especially, sentimental. Text by René J. Marquez 37 Animals in Low-Res My mother talks to her cats like they’re guests at a dinner party. The first mistake was letting them sit at the kitchen table, the second was buying a potty stool to ‘help them reach the cat flap better’. She is in absolutely no doubt that each cat has its own opinions and political leanings, its own food brand preference and that they are a few consonants short of sounding out the days of the week. Text by Isobel Wood 44 Picturing the Beast – A Portfolio by Olly and Suzi We paint together. Ours is a total collaboration. We paint hand over hand on the same painting at the same time. All our work is created in this way. Our art-making process is concerned with our journey; a collaborative, mutual response to nature at its most primitive and wild. Text and Images by Olly and Suzi 52 Becoming Animal: Matter as Indexical Sign in Representation My practice-led PhD research project in the Painting Workshop at the Australian National University challenges what it means to be a painter of animals. The treatment of animals by my Hungarian born father, Tibor, an amateur naturalist and taxidermist, is fundamental to the motivations driving my painting practice and its development. Equally, formative and ongoing exposure to Australian Aboriginal visual traditions, popularised in a style known as x-ray, inform my exploration of animal representation. Text by Vanessa Barbay 59 Posthuman Animals and the Avant-Garde: The Case of Daniel Spoerri Cecilia Novero’s essay situates Daniel Spoerri’s 1995 series of assemblages Carnival of Animals within the legacy of the historical Avant-Garde. In taking a close look at Carnival’s ingenious recourse to non-organicity, through Spoerri’s reworking of chance, and the readymade, but also “frottage,” the essay argues that the Avant-Garde helps to envision human and non-human encounters outside anthropocentric and representational frameworks. At the same time that Spoerri’s assemblages leave behind the frameworks of representation, they do not configure a new space of action or being for non-humans. Rather, they point to multiple lines of escape, including the carnivalesque. In short, the essay maintains that Spoerri’s work offers a valuable example of how the Avant-Garde indeed contributes to the discussion about con-figurations of human and non-human animals. Text by Cecilia Novero 78 Fish: Singly, and in Shoals Every animal that is shown can always signify something, or, to be more precise, it can mean more and something other than merely the animal as shown. This is in the nature of human artifacts, attaching meaning to which is common practice in our culture. This is especially apparent in literature: one cannot read of animals without construing their literary occurrence. Roland Borgards discusses the paintings of fish by Vroni Schwegler. Text by Roland Borgards 82 The Art of Farming I live on a small family farm in North Holland where I exercise my two greatest passions in life: art and nature. My artwork emerges from my experiences on the farm creating a dialog between my two occupations one as a farmer and the other as a working artist. Text by Petra Shilder 85 More than Marginal: Insects in the Hours of Mary of Burgundy A book of hours was an intensely personal devotion book in the Middle Ages. Used daily to direct the prayers of the owner, these illuminated manuscripts, or hand-made illustrated books, were lavishly decorated to the taste of the patron. In the late fifteenth-century Hours of Mary of Burgundy, also known as the Vienna Hours, every folio is richly decorated with window scenes of religious subjects surrounded by extravagant foliage. This decoration of the margins includes, among other animals, an array of insects including bees, moths, flies, and grasshoppers. Text by Eileen Yanoviak 4 TOWARDS A NEW ANIMISM Drawing from a deep phylogeny of cultural cues, Chris Musina references historical painters, contemporary animal cultures, kitsch and museum dioramas in an exploration of the represented relationships to the animal world. Musina addresses the animal not as symbolic object, but as subject, yet a subject aware of its own powerful symbolic nature; painting is interesting to the artist precisely because of this reason and its effects. These paintings are populated with “knowing animal protagonists” who stare back at the viewer with an uneasy gaze; aware of that uncomfortable places they occupy in our cultural histories--asking for compassion, mercy, or simply to be put out of their misery.

    Book IV 1 WE have thus spoken of the generation of animals both generally and separately in all the different classes. But, since male and fe- male are distinct in the most perfect of them, and since we say that the sexes are first principles of all living things whether animals or plants, only in some of them the sexes are separated and in others not, therefore we must speak first of the origin of the sexes in the lat- ter. For while the animal is still imperfect in its kind the distinction is already made between male and female. It is disputed, however, whether the embryo is male or female, as the case may be, even before the distinction is plain to our senses, and further whether it is thus differentiated within the mother or even earlier. It is said by some, as by Anaxagoras and other of the physicists, that this antithesis exists from the beginning in the germs or seeds; for the germ, they say, comes from the male while the fe- male only provides the place in which it is to be developed, and the male is from the right, the female from the left testis, and so also that the male embryo is in the right of the uterus, the female in the left. Others, as Empedocles, say that the differentiation takes place in the uterus; for he says that if the uterus is hot or cold what en- ters it becomes male or female, the cause of the heat or cold being the flow of the catamenia, according as it is colder or hotter, more ‘antique’ or more ‘recent’.

  • Lucyna Kostuch Do Animals Have a Homeland
    H U M a N I M A L I A 9:1 Lucyna Kostuch Do animals have a homeland? Ancient Greeks on the cultural identity of animals The role of animals in ancient Greek culture has been discussed in a variety of contexts, — the relation between human and animal, the moral status of animals, animals in the works of naturalists, animals in tragedy, animals in art, zooarchaeological research. 1 In the literature of ancient Greece, animals are used to represent all things that do not belong to civil society or to the Greek community: slaves, women, and foreign peoples (barbaroi ). Symbolically, animals are often placed outside the country. 2 However, a close reading of texts by Greek authors leads to the conclusion that this is just one side of the coin. The Greeks attributed regional identity to animals, defined by the local geography, and by the history of a region enclosed by borders. At the same time, the world of animals seemed to be ethnically diversified, for the Hellenes coined the terms “Hellenic animal,” belonging to the Greek culture, and “barbaric animal,” belonging to a foreign culture. In this way, Greek animals became an inalienable part of the Hellenic “national” legacy. The Greeks imagined the human world and the world of animals as a world of common borders — there were “familiar” and “unfamiliar” animals at all levels of spatial division. This article, based primarily on literary sources, aims to answer the following questions: How did the ancient Greeks associate animals with space, geography, and their own settlements? Did they attribute nationality and territory to animals? Did they think animals missed their homelands? Could a foreign animal experience a process of cultural integration, namely Hellenization? Animals and Greek civilization .

In particular, the article questions why the notion of tick-as- vegan-technology is so widespread and easily called forward. In order to explain this pattern, we turn to Sunaura Taylor’s monograph, Beasts of Burden and Jasbir Puar’s notion of debility. Taylor’s monograph provides a framework for analyzing the imbrications of power between ableism and speciesism. Puar’s debility helps articulate how the imagination of widespread red meat allergies is an imagination of decapacitation. Puar’s analysis of the invisibilizing of debility also helps reveal how both ticks and humans are debilitated and instrumentalized in this articulated fantasy. We argue that the governance impulse in these discourses reflect a continued alignment with biopolitical forces that always designate some lives as worthy of care and others as useable, which is fundamentally at odds with broader goals of animal liberation.

Mulvihill MA in Book Publishing Thesis Spring 2017 Mulvihill 2 Abstract Though many of us have heard the mantra that we shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, marketers in book publishing bank on the fact that people do and will continue to buy and read books based not only on content, but its aesthetic appeal. This essay will examine the top four marketing trends that can be observed on the Amazon listings for books published on animal rights within the last ten years, specifically relating to titles, cover design, and the intended audience. From graphic adaptations of animals to traditional textbook approaches and animal photography, publishers are striving to evoke interest and investment in literature concerning a politically charged and inherently personal topic.

  • Collective Degradation: Slavery and the Construction of Race
    1 Proceedings of the Fifth Annual Gilder Lehrman Center International Conference at Yale University Collective Degradation: Slavery and the Construction of Race November 7-8, 2003 Yale University New Haven, Connecticut The Black in Medieval Science: What Significance? Peter Biller, University of York, England My theme is the black1 in medieval science. “Science” here refers to texts, and specifically those which came under the headings of “natural philosophy” or “medicine”, dealing with the world and bodies in it according to the order of nature as this was understood in universities. The question is first a descriptive one – what was the image of the black in these texts? – and then secondly it is interpretation – what was the significance of this image? In gatherings of non-medieval historians there is usually some pessimism in a question about the significance of any medieval topic – entertaining? Yes. Significant? No. We know that the middle ages are picturesque, as we hold in our minds colourful pictures of castles and jousting knights, but are the middle ages relevant? On our particular theme, the question is sharpened by the great historiographical monument which looms over any approach to it, the two medieval volumes of The Image of the Black in Western Art, published in 1979.2 Enormous scholarly labour went into the research into images in manuscript illustration, church sculpture and painting, heraldry and coins. The large books which emerged had beautiful illustrations and provided the reader with many interesting puzzles – how, for example, did an artist produce the staggeringly realistic portrait of a negro warrior in the mid 13th century on the cathedral at Magdeburg, and what ideas lay behind this? At the same time the attempts to interprete and contextualise the images were simultaneously clever and limited.

  • Merely Living Animals in Aristotle
    Journal of Ancient Philosophy J. anc. philos. (Engl. ed.), São Paulo, v.9, n.1. p. 115-134, 2015. ISSN 1981-9471 - FFLCH/USP DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11606/issn.1981-9471.v9i1p115-134 www.revistas.usp.br/filosofiaantiga Merely Living Animals in Aristotle Refik Güremen In Parts of Animals II.10, 655b37-656a8, Aristotle tacitly identifies a group of animals which partake of “living only”. This paper is an attempt to understand the nature of this group. It is argued that it is possible to make sense of this designation (i.e. “merely living animals”) if we consider that some animals, which are solely endowed with the contact senses, do nothing more than mere immediate nutrition by their perceptive nature and have no other action. It is concluded that some of Aristotle’s merely living animals would be certain kinds of sponge, certain sea anemones and the ascidians among testacea. Introduction Aristotle starts Parts of Animals, II.10 by addressing the necessary parts of all complete animals and then, representing the living world on a scale ranging from plants to mankind, he says: It is, then, of the nature of plants, being immobile, not to have many forms of the non-uniform parts; for few actions [πράξεις] require the use of few instruments. Accordingly, we should study the visible character of plants independently. But those [living beings] that have, in addition to life, sensation, are more polymorphic in visible character and some of these more than others. And there is still greater variety among those whose nature partakes not only of living but, in addition, of living well.

  • Aristotle on Essence and Habitat
    Created on 26 February 2015 at 21.24 hours page 267 ARISTOTLEON ESSENCEANDHABITAT JESSICAGELBER . Introduction A was aware that organisms have parts and organs that are well suited to exercising their distinctive vital capacities, such as their capacities for locomotion, reproduction, self-maintenance, and perception. The presence of those well-suited parts and organs is, Aristotle thinks, no accident. These parts are present for the sake of those vital activities and functions they are used to perform: Since every instrument is for the sake of something, and each of the parts of the body is for the sake of something, and what they are for the sake of is a certain action, it is apparent that the entire body too has been constituted for the sake of a certain complete action. For sawing is not for the sake of the saw but the saw for sawing; for sawing is a certain use. So the body too is in a way for the sake of the soul, and the parts are for the sake of the functions in relation to which each of them has naturally developed. (PA . , b–, trans. Lennox) Aristotle was also aware that organisms have, by and large, parts and organs that are well suited to life in a certain kind of habitat. (By ‘habitat’ I mean an ecological environment characterized both © Jessica Gelber I am grateful to the organizers and participants of the th Annual Workshop in Ancient Philosophy, particularly my commentator, Eve Rabinoff, as well as to Anna Marmodoro and members of her seminar in Oxford, for their extremely helpful sug- gestions for improvement.
