ROMEU, Vivian. Art, ethics, and socialization: a way of understanding pragmatic aesthetic in postmodern coordinates. Andamios [online]. 2008, vol.5, n.9, pp.183-204. ISSN 2594-1917.

This article presents a reflexion on the social function of contemporary artistic practices. The work takes, initially, a position on postmodernism and also reviews the principal philosophical positions that allow us to assert a pragmatic proposal about the aesthetic proposal. By means of the critical analysis of these proposals, the author indicates the aspects that could be taken into account to elaborate a view that allows us to think about the inmanent relations between art and ethics, which is oriented in this work through the concepts of "dialogue", "knowledge" and "aesthetic experience".

Palabras llave : Pragmatic aesthetic; arts; ethics; socialization; dialogue.
