Ordinary discourse about film is pervasively ethical. From our casual conversations about the moral status of cinematic villains and heroines, through debates about the effects of the portrayal of violence by Hollywood International, to arguments about the portrayal of sex and sexuality, film talk is intimately tied up with ethical concerns and evaluations. It seems to me that the philosophy of film should take this discourse seriously, and attempt to offer an account of the importance of the ethical to the cinematic.

This essay looks at the Orientalist paintings of Gérôme alongside the philosophical debate on art and morality. In light of Said's Orientalism, and a more acute understanding of the problems surrounding representations of the near and middle East, these works have been deemed morally problematic for various reasons. However, does this diminish the aesthetic value of the work of art? Can we and should we, as modern viewers, separate moral and aesthetic judgement in order to appreciate the artistic value of a work of art?

This thesis examines the instrumentalist critique of the Kantian notion of aesthetic autonomy as exemplified in Marxist and feminist thought and suggests a resolution through recourse to an existentialist aesthetics which combines the aesthetic theories of Friedrich Nietzsche and Theodor Adorno.

Art and pornography are often thought to be mutually exclusive. The present article argues that this popular view is without adequate support. Section 1 looks at some of the classic ways of drawing the distinction between these two domains of representation. In Section 2, it is argued that the classic dichotomies (subjectivity versus objectification, the beautiful versus the smutty, contemplation versus arousal, the complex versus the one-dimensional, the original versus the formulaic, imagination versus fantasy) may help to illuminate the differences between certain prototypical instances of pornography and art, but will not serve to justify the claim that pornography and art are fundamentally incompatible. Section 3 considers those definitions of pornography that make an a priori distinction between pornographic and artistic representations. The difference between the ‘merely’ erotic and the pornographic is also discussed in this context. Section 4 provides a critical assessment of the most recent and elaborate arguments against the compatibility of pornography and art. Finally, in Section 5, a case is made for the existence of pornographic art, as a subcategory of erotic art.

This paper has three aims: to define autonomism clearly and charitably, to offer a positive argument in its favor, and to defend a larger view about what is at stake in the debate between autonomism and its critics. Autonomism is here understood as the claim that a valuer does not make an error in failing to bring her moral and aesthetic judgments together, unless she herself does values doing so. The paper goes on to argue that reason does not require the valuer to make coherent her aesthetic and moral evaluations. Finally, the paper shows that the denial of autonomism has realist commitments that autonomism does not have, and concludes that issues of value realism and irrealism are relevant to the debates about autonomism in ways that have not hitherto been recognized.

Advocates of the ethical criticism of art claim that works’ ethical defects or merits have an impact on their aesthetic value. Against ethical critics, autonomists claim that moral criteria should not be part of the considerations when evaluating works of art as art. Autonomism refers to the view that an artwork’s aesthetic value is independent from its ethical value. The purpose of this paper is to examine how autonomism has been defended in the contemporary discussion in analytic aesthetics. I present three versions of autonomism: Richard Posner’s radical autonomism, James C. Anderson and Jeffrey T. Dean, and James Harold’s moderate autonomism, and Francisca Pérez Carreño’s robust autonomism. I argue that robust autonomism offers a stronger argument against the ethical critic. However, I point to some difficulties for Pérez Carreño’s account, and conclude by suggesting how further work in autonomism might go around them.
Andrew Woodhall
The debate about whether ethics relates to aesthetics, and if so, how, has been of importance for both philosophers and society, with far-reaching effects on several important issues, such as whether ethics affects aesthetic value, what works should be enjoyed, censorship, the ethical effects of art, and the permissibility of pornography. The problem is that the main positions within the debate, Moralism (i.e. ethics can affect aesthetics) and Autonomism (i.e. ethics can not affect aesthetics), seem inadequate and have led to an apparently irresolvable impasse, as both of their apparently mutually-exclusive intuitions seem required for any adequate theory. As this relationship is important, in itself and for these philosophical and social debates to get off the ground, resolving this impasse seems imperative. In this paper I argue that this impasse arises by failing to consider the nature of aesthetics and ethics before positing a theory based solely on intuitions. By understanding these natures first, I argue that a theory that combines both the Moralist and Autonomist intuitions can be plausibly put forward. I do this by showing that aesthetic value is based on subjective and relative taste, and thus what constitutes aesthetic value is as Autonomism claims. Despite this, I argue that ethics often impacts value from outside a domain’s independent evaluative standard, such as occurs with the value of scientific research, and thus perhaps ethics can affect our overall taste (and thus aesthetic value) without being a part of aesthetic value. I argue that this new theory resolves the impasse, captures all intuitions, resolves several problems and avoids others that Moralism and Autonomism encounter, has beneficial social consequences, and enables (and provides insight into) the philosophical and social debates. I conclude that understanding the nature of aesthetics and ethics therefore leads to this more plausible theory within the debate.

Book Description Softcover. Condition: Good. This major collection of essays stands at the border of aesthetics and ethics and deals with charged issues of practical import: art and morality, the ethics of taste, and censorship. As such its potential interest is by no means confined to professional philosophers; it should also appeal to art historians and critics, literary theorists, and students of film. Prominent philosophers in both aesthetics and ethics tackle a wide array of issues. Some of the questions explored in the volume include: Can art be morally enlightening and, if so, how? If a work of art is morally better does that make it better as art? Is morally deficient art to be shunned, or even censored? Do subjects of artworks have rights as to how they are represented? Do artists have duties as artists and duties as human beings, and if so, to whom? How much tension is there between the demands of art and the demands of life?. Seller Inventory # SONG0521788056

Two dogmas of the artistic-ethical interaction debate.
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2019
Can artworks be morally good or bad? Many philosophers have thought so. Does this moral goodness or badness bear on how good or bad a work is as art? This is very much a live debate. Autonomists argue that moral value is not relevant to artistic value; interactionists argue that it is. In this paper, I argue that the debate between interactionists and autonomists has been conducted unfairly: all parties to the debate have tacitly accepted a set of constraints which prejudices the issue against the interactionist. I identify two demands which are routinely placed on arguments seeking to establish interaction and argue that they are, in fact, mutually conflicting.
There are two upshots. First, in light of this, it is unsurprising that arguments for interaction have failed to meet with everybody’s satisfaction. The constraints are such that no argument can meet them. Second, recognizing this helps us uncover a new, promising, but hitherto overlooked strategy for establishing artistic-ethical interaction.

“Contemporary Art Underground” showcases hundreds of artworks commissioned by the M.T.A., by artists like Alex Katz, Kiki Smith and Vik Muniz.
By Erica Ackerberg
The New York City subway commute can be unpleasant: the rats, the packed cars, the schedule changes, the smells. But CONTEMPORARY ART UNDERGROUND: MTA Arts & Design New York (The Monacelli Press, $60) , by Sandra Bloodworth and Cheryl Hageman, invites us to see extraordinary beauty in the mundane.
Showcasing the more than 100 site-specific projects that have been commissioned by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority for the city’s subway platforms, overpasses and tunnels since 2015, this book also documents the artists’ creative processes in drawings, models and photographs.
Along the walls of the B/D train station on 167th Street, Rico Gatson created “Beacons,” eight portraits of Black and Latino leaders with connections to the Bronx. He modeled each mosaic on black-and-white photographs, adding bright rays “coming out of a Pan-African sensibility of black, red and green,” Gatson has said, “but expanding with yellow and orange and sometimes evolving into silver and gold.”
Ann Hamilton’s “CHORUS” (2018) is a white marble mosaic of words taken from the preamble of the Declaration of Independence and the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights, “a song stitched step by step” along a wall of the No. 1 train platform at the World Trade Center Cortlandt station.
In the Q train station on 72nd Street, Vik Muniz created “Perfect Strangers” (2017) — life-size depictions of dozens of his fellow riders in colorful mosaics. “People come to New York to see the attractions,” Muniz wrote in his proposal for the project. “But one of the city’s main attractions is its people: diverse, absurdly casual and original.”
The multidisciplinary artist Kiki Smith created her first-ever mosaic, a five-part project in 2022, for the new Long Island Rail Road station at Grand Central Madison. Underground, between entrances to the tracks, Smith’s intricate, large-scale works depict natural scenes in the world outside: sunlight hitting the East River, a deer among reeds, turkeys in a forest.
In his signature style of large, close-up faces (including that of his wife, Ada) against bright-hued backgrounds, the New York native Alex Katz’s 2019 series “Metropolitan Faces” decorates the mezzanine of the 57th Street F station with colorful glass paintings.
The book travels aboveground to show work on a number of Metro-North and L.I.R.R. lines, including the kaleidoscopic laminated glass panels based on watercolors by Mary Judge along an overpass at the Wyandanch station.
The stunning works documented in the book almost make you wish for a train delay.
