What can philosophy reveal about painting that might otherwise remain hidden or obscure? Investigating the complex relationship between what a painting represents and the means by which it is represented, Philosophy and Painting introduces and opens up current debates and ideas. Now thoroughly updated, this 2nd edition includes an additional chapter on contemporary painting, examining the work of artists such as Lynette Yiadom-Boakye, Amy Sillman, and Katharina Grosse, and coverage of topics including the post-medium condition and the digital divide. Remaining highly readable throughout, the book provides a philosophically rigorous defence of the relevance of painting in the 21st-century.
