Arthur Danto Goes to the Movies
View through CrossRef
Abstract
This chapter reviews the ways in which Danto’s “method of indiscernibles” enables him to construct an analysis of films as moving images in terms of necessary conditions. The chapter challenges Danto’s account, but also suggests how Danto’s “end of art” thesis might explain certain developments in avant-garde cinema.
