Rövid leírás:
Breaking the Surface offers comprehensive discussions of the philosophy of holes and perforations, the linguistic anthropology of cut- and break-words, and the perceptual psychology of concavities. The book offers a revelatory way to handle the archaeological past and is a major step forward in the growing subdiscipline of art and archaeology.

In Breaking the Surface, Doug Bailey offers a radical alternative for understanding Neolithic houses, providing much-needed insight not just into prehistoric practice, but into another way of doing archaeology. Using his years of fieldwork experience excavating the early Neolithic pit-houses of southeastern Europe, Bailey exposes and elucidates a previously under-theorized aspect of prehistoric pit construction: the actions and consequences of digging defined as breaking the surface of the ground. Breaking the Surface works through the consequences of this redefinition in order to redirect scholarship on the excavation and interpretation of pit-houses in Neolithic Europe, offering detailed critiques of current interpretations of these earliest European architectural constructions.
The work of the book is performed by juxtaposing richly detailed discussions of archaeological sites (Etton and The Wilsford Shaft in the UK, and Magura in Romania), with the work of three artists-who-cut (Ron Athey, Gordon Matta-Clark, Lucio Fontana), with deep and detailed examinations of the philosophy of holes, the perceptual psychology of shapes, and the linguistic anthropology of cutting and breaking words, as well as with cultural diversity in framing spatial reference and through an examination of pre-modern ungrounded ways of living. Breaking the Surface is as much a creative act on its own -- in its mixture of work from disparate periods and regions, its use of radical text interruption, and its juxtaposition of text and imagery -- as it is an interpretive statement about prehistoric architecture. Unflinching and exhilarating, it is a major development in the growing subdiscipline of art/archaeology.
A fresh and bold contribution that goes beyond disciplinary boundaries....Novel and intriguing inspirations for the study of art. The first step in inaugurating a new field of research, spreading from archaeology to art history [and] disrupting and complicating the previous studies and interpretations offered by both disciplines. Highly recommended to all scholars interested in cutting-edge perspectives that complicate previous studies and encourage question[ing] the state of art both in archaeology, anthropology, and art history
