The radical freedoms of postmodernism, he claims, have had a crippling effect on art, leaving it in danger of becoming meaningless. Art can only acquire meaning through context; the concept of progress, then, is ideal as the primary criterion for establishing that context. The history of art, in fact, can be seen as a process of constant accumulation, works of art commenting on one another and enriching one another's meanings. It is these complex interrelationships and the progress they create in both art and its observers that Doorman, in a display of great philosophical erudition, defends.AestheticsProgressAvant-garde (Aesthetics)Aesthetics.Progress.Avant-garde (Aesthetics)111.85Doorman Maarten800852Marx Sherry1063329MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910143542703321Art in progress4190755UNINA
