Cynthia Freeland But is it art?

an introduction to art theory

What is art, and why do we value it, even when we think it's strange, even shocking? The author explains why innovation and controversy are valued in the arts, weaving together philosophy and art theory with many fascinating examples. She discusses topics like museums, money, politics, blood and sex, clarifying contemporary and historical accounts of the nature, function, and interpretation of the arts, including the digital arts.
