Art exhibition of minor subject students of visual art in Joensuu Campus Library

Going Visual Circles

According to Hans-Georg Gadamer, all understanding advances in circles by nature. With our preconceptions, we begin from one point of origin to an interpretation of another — a person, a text, a work of art... Encounters clarify our thoughts and assumptions, and we return “to ourselves as to another.” From this changed position we return to interpretation, and again we adjust our understanding – and so forth.
