Abstract

The author presents a response to Gregory Currie and Jon Robson's article "Authenticity and Implicature," published within the issue, which addresses the arguments about authenticity in art that she raised in her 2019 book "Things: In Touch With the Past." Topics discussed include the availability of replication techniques which allow reproduction of various objects, the significant value and aesthetic response to original artworks, the use of the terms "authentic" and "genuine" in the validation of the provenance of an artwork, and the difference between replicas and originals based on the notion of exemplification of philosopher Nelson Goodman.
