ART 520 - Philosophy of Art

3 credits
Themes to be discussed include the nature of form and expression in art, the similarities and differences between the artist’s relation to the work of art and the spectator’s, the difference between linguistic and visual arts, and the social function of art. The works of a few major philosophers will be compared to demonstrate alternative points of view.
