This innovative text provides a systematic introduction to philosophical problems concerning the visual arts, and the institutions that sustain them. Stressing conceptual and theoretical issues, the collection first examines the very notion of "the visual arts" and then investigates questions raised by various art forms, from painting, the paradigmatic visual art, to architecture, sculpture, and the more controversial modern forms of photography and film, and the borders of the arts spectrum, including kitsch, dance, the circus, body beautification, and the appreciation of the natural environment.
