(syllabus)
The course aims to offer an overview of the main aesthetic categories - from Beauty to Kitsch, and beyond - to evaluate their relevance in contemporary art practices. In addition to this, the conception of "end of art" elaborated by A. C. Danto will be analyzed as well as his interpretation of the relationship art / philosophy, from some essays of the eighties to the final book
"What Art is" (2013). Particular attention will be paid to Duchamp's work and to the growing presence of reality in the artworld both in the reading provided by Danto and by the Italian artist Gianfranco Baruchello.
