Abstract

This paper examines the idea that beauty, aesthetics, moral principles and ethics in contemporary art are inextricably bound together. It considers the work of two contemporary artists whose practice conflates ideas of beauty and aesthetics with morals and ethics in their considerations of questions of the impact of human agency on the natural world.
