DESCRIPTION:<p>This one-day symposium focuses on Dominic McIver Lopes&rsquo\;s forthcoming book\, Beyond Art. Dominic Lopes (University of British Columbia\, Leverhulme Visiting Professor at the University of Warwick) is among the foremost contemporary philosophers of art. In addition to Lopes\, participants include Mar&iacute\;a Jos&eacute\; Alcaraz Le&oacute\;n (University of Murcia)\, Stacie Friend (Heythrop College)\, Derek Matravers (Open University and University of Cambridge) and Jean-Marie Schafer (EHESS\, University of Paris). In his new book Lopes proposes that the traditional difficulties around defining art &ndash\; as well as other related problems such as those around aesthetic appreciation &ndash\; can be solved once they are transferred to individual art forms. Thus\, aesthetics should turn its attention beyond art\, towards art forms. This original and controversial proposal will be considered and critiqued by the symposium&rsquo\;s other participants\, and Lopes will speak about the book&rsquo\;s project and reply to his critics.<br> <br> The symposium is open to all\, and attendance is free.
