- 4. WHO'S WHO
Alexander Antonyuk as Socrates
“Life contains but two tragedies. One is not to get your
heart’s desire; the other is to get it.”
Chelsea Chapman as Arthur Danto
What is art? "Artworks are embodied meanings"
Mitchell Danford as Susan Sontag
“Interpretation is the revenge of the intellectual upon art. ”
Andrew Fong as Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Beauty can only be found in the product of man. Beauty is a
construct of the mind and as such can only be produced
through it.
Heather Jarrard as Jürgen Habermas
The aesthetic experience then not only renews the
interpretation of our needs in whose light we perceive the
world.

Philosopher Role Play
Assignment Overview and Objectives:
Students work to create a dynamic visual representation of philosophical discussions
surrounding aesthetic topics for art educational teaching and learning. After choosing
a setting for the play, students work on developing individual philosopher “dolls” to
represent ideas within a group presentation display. Project culminates in a tableau
where philosophical ideas are discussed and debated.
Assignment Guidelines/Student Responsibilities:
Building on knowledge gleaned from readings and related course assignments
students complete the following tasks:
Individual Responsibilities:
Select a philosopher as a focus for role play
Respond to aesthetic questions list based on philosopher’s perspective
Create a visual model of your philosopher
Respond to and engage in at least three questions in the display
Group Responsibilities:
Determine visual strategy for representing questions in aesthetics
Build/create visual display
Engage as a discursive group to build conversations between philosophers
Determine a setting for role play enactment
Role play a “dinner party” conversation based on questions in aesthetics

House of Aesthetics
This project consisted of a collaborative effort between the
students and instructor of ART 412 based upon a brief
description of an assignment listed in the course syllabus.
The students determined the scope and visual properties for
the assignment and worked to create a rubric that would
authentically represent the nature and focus of the assigned
tasks.
Visualizing aesthetic theories guided course instruction and
worked as a model of dialogic encounters throughout the
spring term of ART 412, 2014.As students read and digested
complex aesthetic theories from a variety of respected
aestheticians, they worked on building a visual repository of
ideas and frameworks to make invisible ideas realized and
even tangible.
Their efforts at including play and visual semiotics into their
overall course work, culminated in the House of
Aesthetics project and gained each participant in the course a
measurable level of understanding and appreciation for the
role of aesthetics in visual arts educational practice.
Hats off to the students of ART 412/Spring 2014 - An
impressive display of what aesthetics can look like.
Respectfully - Karen McGarry, Instructor

WHO'S WHO
Sarah Kim as Michel Foucault
"What is philosophy if not a way of reflecting, not so much
on which is true and what is false, as on our relationship to
truth? The movement by which, not without effort and
uncertainty, dreams and illusions, one detaches oneself
from what is accept as true and seeks other rules— that is
philosophy.”
Melinda O'Neill Medina
as Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
Art is not merely an imitation of the reality of nature but in
truth a metaphysical supplement to the reality of nature,
placed alongside thereof for its conquest.
Patricia Mercado-Perez as Marcia Eaton
Distorted perspective or obsessive attention to just one
sort of feature is not a characteristic of a well-rounded,
reasonable person, let alone a good critic.
Cecilia Montanez as Clive Bell
If representative form has value, it is as form, not as
representation.
Camille Parillo as Aristotle
"Imitation is natural to man from childhood... and man "learns
at first by imitation"

- 6. WHO'S WHO
Michelle Rimpo as Rosalind Krauss
"One's own perspective, like one's own age, is the only
orientation one will ever have."
Jane Wong as Plato
Art imitates physical things, or Forms. For example, art is
always a copy of a copy. The truth will always be further in
distance. The truth will be way behind an illusion. Art can be
dangerous. Art is imitation.
Karen McGarry as The Professor
Students work to create a dynamic visual representation of
philosophical discussions surrounding aesthetic topics for
art educational teaching and learning.
