What Art Is Website on Aesthetic Philosophy

New York City, NY

May 2010

The idea for this website came from a project done for the "Philosophy and Art Education" class, with Dr. John Baldacchino, at Teachers College, Columbia University. The original project took the form of a board game with the same name, and its general aim is, as was this web site's: to help people learn and understand something about Aesthetic Philosophy and Art. The ultimate goal is for the User to think critically and determine for themselves: What Art Is.
