What is art-making? What is it in virtue of which an artifact counts as a work of art? In this book, it is contended that art-making is best understood in the context of problem-solving. Works of art are various ways in which artists solve problems and overcome obstacles, while typically exhibiting creative thinking. Our theoretical support will hail chiefly from the theory of problem-solving, its theoretical milieu, and various philosophical tools that will help us to build a robust, coherent, and consistent computation- alist approach to art-making and the production of works of art. What are the benefits of a computationalist approach to art-making? You might ask. Given its interdisciplinary nature, this approach will allow us to draw connections between art, philosophy, cognitive science, psychology, decision science, computer science, and other fields. True to the spirit of philosophy, our approach will likely confer a better understanding of how things in the broadest possible sense of the term hang together in the broadest possible sense of the term (Sellars, 1963). This understanding will be broad, systematic, and future-proof: as more machine-generated works will get produced in the future and at increasing levels of sophis- tication, they will be ripe for conceiving of in the computationalist terms of our approach. Our approach will provide theoretical support for the development and incorporation of computational models (for instance, artificial neural networks) into creative and art-making processes and even art education. It will challenge traditional theories of art and constitute a new perspective in the philosophy of art, all the while providing insights on how art-making and related creative processes can be modelled in compu- tational terms. As a reflection of how the gap between the arts and sciences can be bridged, we need look no further than Escher’s combination of a scientifically rigorous understanding of spherical geometry and the laws of optics with artistic mastery in his mathematically precise yet visually stunning depiction of a reflecting sphere.
