Plato, Aristotle and the Transcendence Theory of Art: New Approaches and Philosophical Unorthodoxies - Paperback
by Christine Kunkler (Author)
From a provocative reading of Plato and Aristotle, the Transcendence Theory of Art challenges traditional notions concerning the autonomy of art, essentialism and art as such. As a methodological model, it bridges theoretical analysis and art practice, offering a fresh approach to key areas in philosophy. Christine Stefanie Kunkler introduces original concepts like Index-ART and the Aesthetic Syllogism while proposing the Force Field of Art as an alternative to Arthur Danto's Art World. This study explores how a philosophical reflection on texts and images can deepen our understanding of meaning, interpretation, and misinformation in contemporary culture.
