Phil-Arts is a space for exploring the intersection between philosophy and the arts.  It is meant to encourage the exploration of philosophical ideas beyond the confines of the academic essay.  Doing philosophy through painting, infographicc, comics, diagrams, poetry, fiction, nonacademic writing, film, music, dance, comedy, performance, and other creative media offers opportunities and present and ponder ideas in new ways. Such outlets can interrogate ideas in new ways and reach wider audiences.  Philosophy is not a medium; it can find many forms of expression. 

This website is still in development.  It is a place to share work created by members of the Phil-Arts group at the City University of New York, Graduate Center, and beyond. We would like to see such groups emerge everywhere that philosophy is studied and outside the academy. To share content or suggest addictions, contact Jesse Prinz.
