Ethical Theories and Moral Narratives in Art: A Gallery Tour Through the Corporate Moral Forest

Ethical Theories and Moral Narratives in Art: A Gallery Tour Through the Corporate Moral Forest

by Richard H. Guerrette

Overview

This volume is a critical practical study of the forest industrial complex composed in analogical narratives of prosaic discourse and poetic themes presented in a gallery tour through the corporate moral forest. Its focus is on the changing of "management by objectives" policies to "management by ethics" philosophies and managing moralities. With sociological imagination projecting multi-disciplinary analyses of literary forms and performing arts, Richard Guerrette founded the EquiPax Gallery in Newport, Vermont, where he presents a permanent exhibition with ecological theories and environmental scenes through the multi-media arts of paintings, sculptures and architectural designs.

The EquiPax Gallery's permanent exposition traces the ethical consciousness-raising benefits of art in the workplace and the economic as well as the aesthetic returns of culturally conceived corporate art collections. Corporate art at EquiPax is authentic and integrative with business mission and company culture. It is a primary symbol of the corporate ethos and the company ethic.
