EP8: What is Art and Why Does it Matter?

Born of Wonder - A podcast by bornofwonder

Categories:

On this episode, we ask a big question: "what is art and why does it matter?" Can we define what makes art "good" or "bad" - and is it important that we do? Discussion covers philosopher Roger Scruton, theologians Paul Tillich and Martin Buber, and St. John Paul II's "Letter to Artists."    Visit: www.bornofwonder.com  Paul Tillich: "Dynamics of Faith" Martin Buber: "I and Thou"  "Letter to Artists" JPII: http://www.vatican.va/content/john-paul-ii/en/letters/1999/documents/hf_jp-ii_let_23041999_artists.html  Roger Scruton - "Art Today" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymQ4ruPsJ_c&feature=emb_logo  E.E.
