In this final episode of the Contested Territories series, Arthur Danto, Thierry de Duve, and Richard Shusterman engage in a spontaneous and often provocative dialogue that moves beyond formal presentations into direct philosophical exchange.

Topics range from Pop Art and religious metaphors in aesthetic theory to institutional critique, embodied meaning, and the politics of aesthetic judgment. The conversation—at times humorous, at times deeply reflective—offers rich insight into each thinker’s position, as well as the points of divergence and unexpected overlaps between them.

With references to Kant, Duchamp, Warhol, Rap Music, and even Zen aesthetics, the discussion tracks how notions of art, value, and aesthetic legitimacy have shifted in response to changing cultural conditions.
