Art, dreams and miracles : reflections and representations
(2020) In World Art 10(1). p.1-5- Abstract
- This special issue on Art, Dreams and Miracles presents a series of contributions, drawing primarily from a panel at the 2018 conference of the Royal Anthropological Institute in London.

What constitutes art is kept wide open (which abides by this journal’s tradition); and what is being investigated as ‘art’ in this issue can involve street murals, paintings, texts, photography, writing, tattooing, carving, and others.
