Includes bibliographical references and index."The first accessible reader on magic's generative relationship with contemporary art practice. From the hexing of presidents to a renewed interest in herbalism and atavistic forms of self-care, magic has furnished the contemporary imagination with mysterious and often disorienting bodies of arcane thought and practice. This volume brings together writings by artists, magicians, historians, and theorists that illuminate the vibrant correspondences animating contemporary art's varied encounters with magical culture, inspiring a reconsideration of the relationship between the symbolic and the pragmatic. Dispensing with simple narratives of reenchantment, Magic illustrates the intricate ways in which we have to some extent always been captivated by the allure of the numinous. It demonstrates how magical culture's tendencies toward secrecy, occlusion, and encryption might provide contemporary artists with strategies of remedial communality, a renewed faith in the invocational power of personal testimony, and a poetics of practice that could boldly question our political circumstances, from the crisis of climate collapse to the strictures of socially sanctioned techniques of medical and psychiatric care. Tracing its various emergences through the shadows of modernity, the circuitries of ritual media, and declarations of psychic self-defence, Magic deciphers the evolution of a "magical-critical" thinking that productively complicates, contradicts and expands the boundaries of our increasingly weird present"--- Subjects: Art, Modern; Art, Modern; Art and magic.;

Includes bibliographical references.A vuestra atención -- Ausentarse: la crisis de la atención en las sociedades comtemporáneas / Amador Fernández-Savater -- Crítica de la economía de la atención -- Las artes de prestar atención -- Infancia, escuela y cuidados."Disminución de la capacidad de concentración, trastornos de hiperactividad en la infancia, percepción generalizada de un tiempo que se acelera, infoxicación, relaciones ansiosas con las nuevas tecnologías, abuso de psicofármacos o posibilidad de acudir a todo tipo de terapias para aprender a vivir aquí y ahora. Nunca estamos en lo que estamos. ¿Qué está pasando? ¿De qué nos hablan estos desórdenes de la atención? En todas las situaciones de la vida cotidiana existe una batalla por entrar en nuestras cabezas y controlar nuestros cuerpos. Sin embargo, existe también la capacidad de vivir de otra manera: prestando atención a los detalles, reapropiándonos del presente y cuidando a los demás. Los autores y autoras aquí reunidos abordan la atención como un arte de la presencia y como una potencia que desordena lo establecido y el dominio de los automatismos, en busca de algo distinto, más abierto y más libre. Queda en nuestras manos reactivar las fuerzas capaces de revitalizarla para transformar el mundo y adoptar una visión emancipadora de lo común."--- Subjects: Attention.; Awareness.; Mindfulness (Psychology); Distraction (Psychology); Spanish language materials.;
