Art Rethought: The Social Practices of Art
Wolterstorff, Nicholas (Yale University / University of Virginia)
We engage with works of art in many ways, yet almost all modern philosophers of art have focused entirely on one mode of engagement: disinterested attention. Nicholas Wolterstorff explores why this is, and offers an alternative framework according to which arts are a part of social practice, and have different meaning in different practices.
