29 nov 2018 · High Life è la storia di un viaggio senza speranza: a un gruppo di galeotti è stata offerta la sospensione della pena (ergastolo o peggio) in cambio di fare da cavie a esperimenti scientifici a bordo di una nave spaziale che salpa alla velocità della luce verso un buco nero.

What distinguishes low, middle, and high art? We might worry that these aesthetic concepts are dated or have nothing to do with an artwork’s aesthetic qualities.1For example, one might think that instead of low, middle, and high art, there are just different ways of engaging with art (e.g., ivory-tower academic analysis, journalistic criticism, cas...
I.A. Statement of the Capacity View
According to what I call the Capacity View, the primary feature that distinguishes low, middle, and high art is the accessibility of its significant aesthetic qualities to perceivers. Here is a first pass at the view: Though I clarify this terminology shortly, this rough pass seems to get the key cases right. On this proposal, James Joyce’s Finnegans Wake will count as high art, a well-crafted and thought-provoking blockbuster such as Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight will count as middle a...
I.B. Significant Aesthetic Qualities and Aesthetic Qualities as Reasons for Appreciation
For the present discussion, the aesthetic qualities of artwork are reasons that make it fitting for or deserving of appreciation. Thus, the account will not be directly concerned with reasons that do not directly make the artwork fitting for or deserving of appreciation (e.g., you will get paid to appreciate it, it will help you make friends or appear intelligent, etc.).3 Second, said aesthetic qualities need not be completely intrinsic properties of the artwork. For example, a film may have...
I.C. Aesthetic Responsive Capacities and Levels of Accessibility
What is an aesthetic responsive capacity (i.e., a capacity to possess and respond to the aesthetic qualities of artwork as reasons to appreciate it)? My answer draws from Errol Lord’s (2018)account of what it takes to possess a reason. The general idea is that in order to possess and thus respond to some fact as a reason for some action or attitude, one needs to be able to use that fact in their deliberation about which action or attitude to adopt. Consider an example involving a reason for a...
Having stated the Capacity View, let us consider some of its practical advantages. Two preliminary points for the reader. Though I believe the relational version of the Capacity View is more fundamental and helps us secure the advantages discussed in Subsections II.A. and II.B. below, I would be satisfied if the reader ends up finding only the firs...
Having laid out the Capacity View and some of the advantages in thinking about low, middle, and high art this way, let us consider three more objections to the view. This will help bring it into greater focus.
My aim in presenting the Capacity View is to provide a defensible account of the distinction between low, middle, and high art that is neither elitist nor deflationary. It avoids elitism because it does not claim that high art is a fixed category determined solely by intrinsic qualities that just a few highly educated aesthetes or artists can appre...
Charlie Chaplin. Film genre scholars have long noted a struggle between "high art" and. "low art" as one of the core conflicts in the dramatic plotting of motion picture musicals. One of the most brilliant examples of this conflict occur ring at multiple levels throughout the narrative may be found in The Band Wagon (1953, dir. Vincente Minnelli).
