> Works of art are cognitive devices aimed at the production of rich
> cognitive effects. Thus it can be argued, in the light of what is known
> about human cognition, that aesthetic experience is a by-product of the
> exercise of more fundamental cognitive faculties such as perception and
> imagination. Works of art, on this view, are never grasped directly.
> Rather, in an aesthetic experience, a subject directly perceives a
> certain object or event (a canvas, a display of pixels, a series of
> sounds), and this perception gives rise to a cognitive activity of a
special,
> aesthetic type. Theories of art should thus address questions about the
> interplay of the cognitive faculties. Papers are invited on all aspects
of
> the relation between perception, imagination, the emotions, and aesthetic
> experience, and on the way in which findings in cognitive science can shed
> new light on art, its appreciation, and its evaluation.
