Instead of treating art as a uniquely human and cultural creation that requires reason and refined taste to appreciate, Elizabeth Grosz argues that art - especially architecture, music, and painting - is born from the disruptive forces of sexual selection. Grosz draws on the arguments of the writers Deleuze, Guattari and Irigaray in her own exploration.
