Throughout this essay I will attempt to draw similarities between one of America’s fine artists, Vija Celmins and two philosophical aesthetics theories; the sublime and simulacra. I will discuss both the resemblances and the differences between the theories and a work by Celmins in the 1980s, “Constellation – Uccello.” Vija Celmins is a well respected [...]
