- More about What Art Does: Using Philosophy of Technology to Talk about Art
Artworks are tools with special functions and affordances that give them a privileged character and status, making them meaning-making objects with something to say. This book proposes a new theory to explain how art conveys meaning.

Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing Plc
Artworks are objects that have functions and furnish affordances, making them special and privileged. This book proposes a new theory that defends the claim that artworks constitute a class of tool, with functions and affordances that are special and privileged due to the social and material facts that underpin their creation. Artworks are meaning-making objects with something to say, and this book explores how they convey meaning.
