This chapter addresses some central issues in current art-anthropology encounters or ‘convergences’ with on the one hand the so-called ‘ethnographic turn’ of the arts, and on the other hand the (post) writing culture critique of fieldwork practices in anthropology, coupled with a renewed emphasis on practice (in addition to and beyond text). It deals with the confluence of different disciplinary forms of experimentation through four principal points: (1) iconophobia, (2) the senses (3) ethics and (4) formal experimentation, before turning to the trope of ‘dialogue’.
Keywords: iconophobia, senses, ethics, experimentation, dialogue
