    The place of the viewer : the embodied beholder in the history of art, 1764-1968
    Houston, Kerr
    In recent decades, art historians and critics have occasionally emphasized a dynamic, embodied mode of looking, accenting the role of the viewer and the complex interplay between beholders and works ... of art. In The place of the viewer, Kerr Houston shows that an attention to the position and physical experiences of beholders has in fact long informed art historical analyses and that close study of the theme can lead to a fuller understanding of the discipline, the act of viewership and individual works of art. Simultaneously attentive to historical ideas and contemporary scholarship, this book identifies a vein of thought that has been generally overlooked, and proposes new ways of seeing familiar works and traditions.
