On the Definability of Art

Abstract

There are many key concepts that, even while being part of everyday life, elude definition. One such is “Art.” Here, possible ways are identified to define Art, along with a description of a few factors that underlie the challenge in arriving at a definition. Additionally, a candidate definition from a scientist’s viewpoint is proposed for an abstract, encompassing model.
