Stefan Mejatschak brings together Wittgenstein’s scattered thoughts on aesthetic and art theoretical questions to form a coherent concept. The main focus lies on what it really means to understand a work of art. The understanding of a work of art is seen as the perception of a new aspect of an object. Following on from Wittgenstein, this article further examines how experts proceed when justifying aesthetic judgements.
