Opis

Art and Zen is a book by the architect, musician, philosopher and intermedia artist Emanuel Dimas de Melo Pimenta. A reflection about what art is and its deep implications in life, the book was written in the Italian mountains of Abruzzo. Emanuel Pimenta has been involved with Zen since many years. He studied Zen aesthetics with the composer Hans Joachim Koellreutter, who lived in Japan in the 1960s and 1970s. He also collaborated with John Cage along his last seven years of life. The book reveals the influence of Daisetz Suzuki, master of John Cage, but also of other personalities, like Mr. Chico, a shaman who lived in the Brazilian forests and was one of Pimenta's masters.
