520 _a"Aesthetics and the philosophy of art are about things in the world -- things like a plastic pink flamingo, Francis Bacon's triptychs and the novel American Dirt . As much as the philosophers who ask them, these are the things that raise philosophical questions and challenge philosophical theories: is it art? Is it beautiful? Is it immoral? Here is everything you need to know about why these questions about art and aesthetics have bothered thinkers since antiquity, and continue to bother philosophers today. Darren Hudson Hick uses examples to raise, illustrate and -- in some cases -- complicate these issues. Each chapter opens with an extended case study that serves as a starting point, motivates the chapter's problems and operates as a touchstone. This 3rd edition now includes a fresh set of more varied case studies that draw on African, Asian and continental traditions and feature classical Chinese calligraphy, Simon Morris's Getting Inside Jack Kerouac's Head, Sol LeWitt's wall drawings and tribal artifacts. Each chapter closes with an additional case study to challenge your thinking. Addressing problems about identity, morality and appropriation dominating recent aesthetics, it introduces an array of theories and arguments about contemporary art."--
