Art & Beauty, Hardback Book

Art & Beauty Hardback

Hardback

Description

This work attempts to establish a philosophy of art that is both intellectual and objective.

At first sight it may appear that these goals are at variance with contemporary ideas.

On closer examination, however, the reader will see that the tendency is in the opposite direction, a closer approach to present-day thought rather than a departure from it.

To admit that there exists a world other than that of our subjective states is to subscribe to an interpretation more in keeping with the real, and thus also with artistic reality.

The intellectual and objective philosophy to which this book appeals in order to interpret the beauty of art will not be an intrusion, if it guards against all exclusiveness and does not itself compromise that which gives it its value.
