Philosophizing Art by Arthur C Danto
Includes essays that explore the relationship between philosophy and art through a number of cases in which either artists are driven by philosophical agendas or their art is seen as solving philosophical problems in visual terms.
"A challenge to the philosophical mindHighly recommended for those who love to ponder and be provoked aesthetically." - I. Spalatin, Choice"
