Description: The Abuse of Beauty by Arthur C. Danto Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Arthur C. Danto traces the evolution of the concept of beauty during the 20th century and explores how it was removed from the definition of art. Publisher Description In The Abuse of Beauty, art critic and philosopher Arthur Danto explains how the notion of beauty as anathema to art arose and flourished and offers a new way of looking at art and beauty. He draws on the thought of artists, critics, and philosophers such as Rimbaud, Fry, Matisse, and Greenberg, to reposition beauty as one of many modes — along with sexuality, sublimity, disgust, and horror — through which the human sensibility expresses itself. 20 black-and-white illustrations are included. Author Biography Arthur C. Danto is Johnsonian Professor of Philosophy Emeritus at Columbia University. He is the art critic for The Nation and author of more than 20 books.
