Philosophie des Konzeptualismus (Stanford Encyclopedia)

Die Stanford Encyclopedia hat einen Eintrag zum Konzeptualismus; ich sammle seit einiger Zeit Material für eine ‚Poetik‘ des Konzeptualismus, wird aber noch dauern.

The philosophy of art addresses a broad spectrum of theoretical issues arising from a wide variety of objects of attention. These range from Paleolithic cave painting to postmodern poetry, and from the problem of how music can convey emotion to that of the metaphysical status of fictional characters. Until recently, however, philosophical interest in conceptual art, or conceptualism, has been notably sparse. Why? After all, both philosophy and the myriad of kinds and styles of art and art-making that fall under the conceptual tradition all have one thing in common: they are both intended to make you think and ask pressing questions. What are those questions and how do we go about answering them?
