Artistic Judgement sketches a framework for an account of art suitable to philosophical aesthetics. It stresses differences between artworks and other things; and locates the understanding of artworks both in a narrative of the history of art and in the institutional practices of the art world. Hence its distinctiveness lies in its strong account of the difference between, on the one hand, the judgement and appreciation of art and, on the other, the judgement and appreciation of all the other things in which we take an aesthetic interest. For only by acknowledging this contrast can one do justice to the importance regularly ascribed to art. The contrast is explained by appealing to an occasion-sensitive account of understanding, drawn from Charles Travis directly, but with Gordon Baker (and Wittgenstein) as also proximate rather than remote. On this basis, it argues, first, that we need to offer accounts of key topics only as far as questions might be raised in respect of them (hence, not exceptionlessly); and, second, that we should therefore defend the view that the meaning of artworks can be changed by later events (the historical character of art, or forward retroactivism) and that art has an institutional character, understood broadly on the lines of Terry Diffey's Republic of Art. Besides providing a general framework, Artistic Judgement also explores the applications of the ideas to specific artworks or classes of them.

The theft, trafficking, and falsification of cultural property and cultural heritage objects are crimes of a particularly complex nature, which often have international ramifications and significant economic consequences. Organized criminal groups of various types and origins are involved in these illegal acts. The book Crime in the Art and Antiquities World has contributions both from researchers specializing in the illegal trafficking of art, and representatives of international institutions involved with prevention and detection of cultural property-related crimes, such as Interpol and UNESCO. This innovative volume also includes an Appendix of the existing legal texts, i.e. international treaties, conventions, and resolutions, which have not previously been available in a single volume. This work is a unique and useful reference for scholars and private and public bodies alike.

Il libro vuole saldare didattica e divulgazione su un tema di grande fascino come quello dei rapporti tra la matematica e l'espressione artistica cercando di andare oltre alle ovvietà che spesso circondano questo argomento, alle facili metafore, a esoterici misteri, con l'obiettivo di fornire un quadro concettuale matematico per quanto possibile rigoroso, accessibile a una cultura liceale, isolando quei temi per i quali non sia pretestuoso l'intreccio tra matematica e arte. Il Cd che accompagna il testo raccoglie il materiale didattico prodotto nella attività laboratoriale con gli studenti: schede di lavoro, animazioni, film, pagine di geometria dinamica, e può essere utilmente utilizzato da chi intenda riproporre nel proprio contesto didattico questa esperienza.

Chance ordained that Denis Diderot was not only a philosopher, playwright and writer, but also a salonnier. In other words, an art critic. In 1759, his friend Grimm entrusted him with a project that forced him to acquire thoughtful notions concerning painting and sculpture and to refine art terms, so familiar in his words yet so vague in his mind. Diderot wrote artistic reviews of exhibitions - Salons - that were mounted bi-annually by the Académie Royale de Peinture et de scultpure. These reviews, published in the Correspondence littéraire, were Diderot's unique contribution to art criticism in France. He fulfilled his task of salonnier on nine occasions, despite misgivings of his own enthusiasm and self-confidence. Compiled and presented by Jean Seznec, this anthology helps the contemporary reader to familiarize himself with Diderot's aesthetic thoughts in all its greatness. It includes eight illustrations and is followed by texts from Jean Starobinski, Michel Delon, and Arthur Cohen. On Art and Artists has been edited and translated by John S.D.Glaus who is an amateur dix-huitièmeiste. His current project is the translations of the remaining Diderot Salons.
