This book examines the little understood end-of-art theses of
Hegel, Nietzsche, and Danto. The end-of-art claim is often
associated with the end of a certain standard of taste or
skill. However, at a deeper level, it relates to a
transformation in how we philosophically understand our relation to
the ‘world’. Hegel, Nietzsche, and Danto each strive
philosophically to overcome Cartesian dualism, redrawing the
traditional lines between mind and matter. Hegel sees the
overcoming of the material in the ideal, Nietzsche levels the two
worlds into one, and Danto divides the world into representing and
non-representing material. These attempts to overcome dualism
necessitate notions of the self that differ significantly from
traditional accounts; the redrawn boundaries show that art and
philosophy grasp essential but different aspects of human
existence. Neither perspective, however, fully grasps the duality.
The appearance of art’s end occurs when one aspect is given
priority: for Hegel and Danto, it is the essentialist lens of
philosophy, and, in Nietzsche’s case, the transformative power of
artistic creativity. Thus, the book makes the case that the
end-of-art claim is avoided if a theory of art links the internal
practice of artistic creation to all of art’s historical
forms.Â
