In this video I break down Arthur Danto's belief that Art ended in the 1960's when he saw Andy Warhol's Brillo Boxes. He approaches the theory of art through classical philosophy and uses frameworks established by Plato and Hegel, among others, to build a story of art that results in a conclusion, and thus an ending. This may give viewers new insights into the ways we can approach contemporary art.
