This research paper: The Function of Artwork as Text (5 pp) If we are to ask ourselves how artwork functions as a text, it is first necessary to determine what is "text?" We tend to think of it as printed words on a page. Yet text may refer to scholastic material, or sacred writing, however, it can also serve as a "theme," or a "topic." It is this last definition, that we shall use in this discussion. The reference essay used is Suzi Gablik's 1991 "Deconstructing Aesthetics," from her book, The Re-Enchantment of Art. The Postmodern artists discussed will be Cindy Sherman and Philip Pearlstein. Bibliography lists three sources.
