The State Of The Art by Arthur C. Danto
A collection of philosophical essays that argues contemporary art must be understood through its ideas and institutional context rather than solely by formal qualities; it traces how modernist developments led to a post-historical condition in which anything can be made art through interpretation, examines conceptual and pop art and works that blur the line between art and ordinary objects, and defends a theory-informed approach to aesthetics and criticism.
