Sinopsis

In a recent poll of practicing art critics,á75 percent reported that rendering judgments on artworks was the least significant aspect of their job. This is aátroubling statistic for philosopher and critic Noel Carroll, who argues that that the proper task of the critic is not simply to describe, or to uncover hidden meanings or agendas, butáinsteadáto determine what is of value in art. Carroll argues for a humanistic conception of criticism which focuses on what the artist has achieved by creating or performing the work. Whilst a good critic should not neglect to contextualize and offer interpretations of a work of art, he argues that too much recent criticism has ignored the fundamental role of the artistâÇÖs intentions. Including examples from visual, performance and literary arts,áand the work of contemporary critics, Carrolláprovides a charming, erudite and persuasive argument that evaluation of artáis an indispensable part of the conversation of life.
