Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christy Mag Uidhir presents a new theory of art. Few philosophers agree about what it is for something to be art, but most or all agree that art must be somehow intention-dependent. Mag Uidhir shows that this requirement has radical implications for the nature of art and of art forms, for the ontology of art, and for issues about authorship.
