Why are the visual arts so important and what is it that makes
their forms significant? Countering recent interpretations of
meaning that understand visual artworks on the model of literary
texts, Crowther formulates a theory of the visual arts based on
what their creation achieves both cognitively and aesthetically. He
develops a phenomenology that emphasizes how visual art gives
unique aesthetic expression to factors that are basic to
perception. At the same time, he shows how various artistic media
embody these factors in distinctive ways. Attentive to both the
creation and reception of all major visual art forms (picturing,
sculpture, architecture, and photography), "Phenomenology of the
Visual Arts" also addresses complex idioms, including abstract,
conceptual, and digital art.
