In “Aesthetic Concepts,” Frank Sibley argues that not all qualities of an artwork can be defined in
terms of conditions or strict rules. Summarize, in your own words, what Sibley means by “aesthetic concept” and “aesthetic judgment,” and how he thinks they differ from other concepts and judgments. Then, choose an artwork and list some of what you take to be its aesthetic properties. Pick one of those aesthetic properties, and describe, in as much detail as you can, the non-aesthetic properties in virtue of which your work has that aesthetic property. (For example, “Matisse’s “The Dance” is exuberant because of its bold, vibrant colors.” But, like, more detailed.) Sibley would argue that no matter how detailed your description, it could never be good enough to use as a reliable test for the presence or absence of the aesthetic property in other artworks. (i.e. “It has bold, vibrant colors” will never be enough to entail that some other painting is also exuberant, as opposed to, say, garish.) Do you think your description could be used as a test of this kind? Why or why not? What happens when you apply it to other artworks? Do you think that Sibley is right that it’s hopeless to give a true definition of a concept like “exuberance”?
