PART TWO
Discussion: Is a "happening" visual art?
1. After you've considered Alan Kaprow's "happenings," how would you defend these against the following simple deductive argument about aesthetics.
2. Premise 1: Art takes the form of human-made material objects with specific aesthetic attributes (line, color, texture, value, deliberate composition).
3. Premise 2: A happening involves loosely-orchestrated, performative encounters in which human-made material objects are secondary
4. Conclusion: A happening is therefore not art, though it may be some thing else (theater perhaps)
5. Try to undermine one of the premises. For example, how could you persuasively define art without material objects or specific attributes (thereby undermining premise 1)?
