What exactly is the art world according to Dickie?
The artworld is the individuals who claim to in the art world. There is an inner circle within the art world is made up of the actual critics and artists. However this leaves a very open problem with the theory. There is an issue of what really is and isn’t art. If a majority of art critics and artists don’t view a piece as art but someone claiming membership in the artworld, which is true? Where do we draw the line? I personally think that real art is better left to the individual, because in the end, art is such a subjective argument. However, I’d rather leave the artworld in the hands of the professionals.
