- Title
Artists' intentions and artwork meanings: Some complications.
- Authors
Davies, Stephen
- Abstract
Artists' intentions are among the primar)' data retrieved by art appreciators. However, artistic creation is not always deliberate; artists sometimes fail in their intentions; artists' achievements depend on artworld roles, not only intentions; factors external to the artist contribute to artwork meaning; artworks stand apart from their creators; and interpretation need not be exclusively concerned with recovering intended meaning.
