KQs for The Arts
Scope
• Do the disciplines in the arts diverge from one another more fundamentally than disciplines within other areas of knowledge?
-
-
• Are the arts best seen as a system of knowledge, a type of knowledge or a means of expressing knowledge?
-
• Is the relationship between “knowing how” and “knowing that” different in the arts compared to other areas of knowledge? Does art enlarge what it is possible for us to think and know?
Methods and tools
-
• Does sense perception perform a radically different role in the arts compared to other areas of knowledge?
• If the language of an art form is non-verbal, does this free it from being limited to propositional knowledge?
• Can some knowledge in the arts only be gained through experience? How does the medium used change the way that knowledge is produced, shared or understood?
• To what extent are the methods of justification different in the arts compared to other areas of knowledge?
Ethics
• In what ways are moral judgments similar to, or different from, aesthetic judgments?
-
-
-
• On what criteria could it be decided if the state has the right to censor art that is deemed immoral or blasphemous?
-

-
Perspective
-
-
• How does knowing more about the social, cultural or historical context of a work of art have an impact on our knowledge of the work itself?
• Can art change the way we interpret the world? • What are the justifications for, and implications of, claiming that there are absolute standards for “good art”?
• Who determines what art is valued, and on what criteria?
