Question: In reading the Platonic dialogue called the Ion, you will see some claims about inspiration, and reproduction. For this prompt I want you to consider the nature of art in relation to our ability to allude and reference other works of art. In other words, does something have to be 'original' to be an art object? What does 'original' mean? To provide some guidance, consider these sub-prompts (again, you can use these or any other idea you may have): Do types of cultural architecture, i.e. Greco-roman, Arabesque, Gothic, exist solely in their respective regions/times? Can we have new forms of these art today? Or are they 'mere' representations, or interpretations of actual art? Alternatively, consider music: are remixes, and mashups 'music' in the sense of being original art works? Why or Why not are they to be considered original; does this dictate their position as legitimate forms of art? incorporate material from: Ion, Dewey, and Hume.
