With articles written only by living authors, this anthology serves as an introduction to the central issues in art occupying philosophers today.

Living Debates in Aesthetics curates a broad selection of newly commissioned work and influential articles published in the 21st century. This is the place to start for anyone looking for an inclusive and relevant introduction to aesthetics.

Each chapter contains three articles offering a range of viewpoints, inviting us to view all sides of a debate. This structure helps us understand how to construct arguments.

Focusing exclusively on contemporary discussions, it brings together topics connected to the new age of digital art, video games, art on the streets, and art of the body and represents an exciting mix of artworks including computer art, food, fashion, and sport. Articles tackle pressing issues in race, ethics, cultural appropriation, and cancel culture, breathing life into philosophical ideas about taste and judgement.

What Living Debates in Aesthetics reveals is that ideas in aesthetics are all around us. We learn exactly why the objects and experiences we encounter on a daily basis are philosophically interesting.
