If an artwork could speak

aesthetic understanding after Wittgenstein

Constantine Sandis

pp. 355-382

Abstrakt

This chapter allies Bob Dylan with Wittgenstein to argue that Lockean approaches to understanding systematically neglect crucial aspects of our experience of art. Pace Rush Rhees, I maintain that understanding art is not a matter of knowing ideas. If this were so all art would  be unhappily rendered into conceptual art.
