The work of art and aesthetic categories according to Ingarden

Janusz Misiewicz

pp. 55-70

Abstract

It would seem that the elucidation of the essence and specificity of artistic values consists in the description of the structure and operation of the work of art. Most modern aesthetic theories seem to share this conviction. However, the explanation of artistic values through the operation of a certain kind of object (works of art) leads to unexpected and even paradoxical results, which appear even in competent and conscientious studies.
