"This book examines the importance of the animal in modern art theory, using classic
texts of modern aesthetics and texts written by modern artists to explore the influence
of the human-animal relationship on nineteenth and twentieth century artists and art
theorists. The book is unique due to its focus on the concept of the animal, rather
than on images of animals, and it aims towards a theoretical account of the connections
between the notions of art and animality in the modern age. Roni Grén's book spans
various disciplines, such as art theory, art history, animal studies, modernism, postmodernism,
posthumanism, philosophy, and aesthetics."
