1 Introduction -- 2 The Informational Turn in Philosophy -- 3 Towards an Information-theoretic Philosophy of Art -- 4 Towards a Computationalist Approach to Art-making -- 5 The Computationalist Theory of Problem-solving -- 6 Theorizing about Art -- 7 The Goals of Art -- 8 The Central Artistic Task -- 9 The Analogy between Logic and Art -- 10 The Creative Aspect of Art-making -- 11 The Ontological Status of Works of Art -- 12 Symbol Systems -- 13 Machine Art -- 14 Conclusion.

What is art-making? What is it in virtue of which an artifact counts as a work of art? In this book, Melvin Chen contends 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. Using the theory of problem-solving, its theoretical milieu, and various philosophical tools, Chen builds a robust, coherent, and consistent computationalist approach to art-making and the production of works of art. This computationalist approach to art-making and the production of works of art, in turn, is articulated against the backdrop of an information-theoretic philosophy of art. This computationalist approach takes discussions in the philosophy of art into the twenty-first century. Melvin Chen is a Senior Lecturer in Philosophy and Faculty Member of the University Scholars Programme at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.
