我客厅的桌子上固定着一台古董苹果削皮器，它是 19 世纪的铸铁机械装置，是几年前我送给妻子的生日礼物。这东西不是艺术。至少，我不相信这是艺术。然而我和我的妻子并不用它作为苹果削皮器；而是用它来削苹果。我们把它当作艺术。事实上，我的客厅里摆满了我们用作艺术品的东西——一些人工制品，一些自然物体——但我的客厅里并没有摆满艺术品。我认为这并不是什么不寻常的现象。事实上，我相信这是一种普遍存在的现象，发生在艺术与非艺术之间模糊的界限上，尤其是在家庭中。然而，使用一个事物作为艺术而不因此相信它是艺术，并且不相信它是（或因此成为）艺术，到底意味着什么，并不是一个简单的问题，特别是考虑到当今艺术的许多功能，以及它们与非艺术的功能重叠。在这篇文章中，我研究了使用事物（特别是非艺术事物，无论是人工制品还是其他）作为艺术的概念，以及这个概念在哲学内部和外部的重要性。
Secured to a table in my living room is an antique apple peeler—a cast iron 19th century mechanical contrivance that I gave my wife for her birthday some years ago. This thing is not art. At the very least, I do not believe it is art. Yet my wife and I do not use it as an apple peeler; we use it as art. Indeed, my living room is filled with things that we are using as art—some artifacts, some natural objects—but my living room is not filled with art. This is not, I think, all that unusual a phenomenon. Indeed, I believe this is a widespread phenomenon occurring at the blurry line between art and non-art, especially in the home. However, exactly what it means to use a thing as art without thus believing it is art, and without it being (or thus becoming) art, is not a straightforward matter, especially given the many functions of art today, and their functional overlap with non-art. In this essay, I investigate the notion of using a thing—specifically a non-art thing, whether an artifact or otherwise—as art, and the importance of this notion both inside and outside of philosophy..
