Atlas of Emotion is a highly original endeavour to map a cultural history of spatio-visual arts. In an evocative montage of words and pictures, emphasises that "sight" and "site" but also "motion" and "emotion" are irrevocably connected.

Visually luscious and daring in conception, Bruno opens new vistas and understandings at every turn.

Les acadèmies de belles arts han estat unes de les institucions més importants en l’esfera cultural dels darrers segles a Occident, com a centres formadors i també com a organismes reguladors de la pràctica artística. Les contribucions aplegades en aquest volum busquen incidir en aspectes com l’evolució dels paradigmes estètics impulsats des de cada entitat, les relacions nacionals i internacionals amb altres institucions, la formació impartida o el funcionament dels centres i els seus protagonistes.
