    Nichtpropositionalität und Kunstgehalt - Ein interdisziplinäres Forschungsprojekt zur Begrifflichkeit einer ästhetischen Debatte

    Eigenständiger FSP Transdisziplinarität (fsp-t) (bis 2019)

    Non-Propositionality and artistic content – an interdisciplinary research project for the conceptuality of an aesthetic debate

    “Meaning” in works of art was examined as part of a philosophical thesis. On the one hand, the question of how the theory can even be conceived that works of arts should “mean” something is paramount. On the other hand, those models in particular which dispute the characteristics of propositions that underlie artistic “content” (the “message”), were examined: e.g. to be capable of truth, to be linguistically comprehensible, to be non-particular or specific. Special attention was given to the special role of sensory perception and the role of the medium/material.

    In 2014, “Ästhetisches Denken. Nichtpropositionalität, Episteme, Kunst” [Aesthetic Thinking. Non-Propositionality, Episteme, Art] was published by Diaphanes Verlag with contributions from Florian Dombois, Alexander García Düttmann, Mira Fliescher, Jochen Gerz, Dieter Mersch, Isabel Mundry, Michaela Ott, Julia Rintz, Mirjam Steiner.
