Aesthetics and Defining Art

from £78.00

This masterclass will introduce you to Aesthetics by exploring some of the key ideas that this area of philosophy engages, such as the meaning, value and definition of art. This will lead to a wide-ranging discussion of artistic meaning, taking in a wide scope of issues including: functional art, political art, artistic intentionalism, attitudes to art, morality and art, good vs. bad art and more. What does artwork mean? Who decides what is art? You will review some of the frameworks for defining art and the common theories of artistic meaning that are propounded.

  • Duration: Suggested 1-2 hours, dependent on the level of detail desired. If aesthetics is of particular interest, you may be interested in taking further masterclasses on art & interpretation, Aristotle’s Aesthetics and Plato’s Aesthetics.
