If an artwork could speak
aesthetic understanding after Wittgenstein
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.
