In the theory and philosophy of art, the difference between art and other human practices is commonly emphasized. This leads to a lack of sufficient understanding of both the plurality of the arts and the relevance of art within the framework of human life. For this reason, Georg W. Bertram advocates for a new approach to defining art and defends the thesis that different determinations of human practice are renegotiated in the engagement with artworks. In this sense, art is a highly productive reflective practice within the context of human relations to the world. Moreover, art is a practice of freedom.
