 In “Qualitative Thought”, which appears in Philosophy and Civilization (1931), Dewey says some things that anticipate some of the moves he makes in Art as Experience. For example, he argues that there is a “logic of artistic construction” and that refusal to admit this is a sign of breakdown of traditional logic. When a work of art does not hold together so that the quality of one part reinforces and expands the qualities of the other parts it fails. Works that are genuine intellectual and logical wholes have an underlying quality that defines them and that controls the artist’s thinking. The logic of such an artist is the logic of qualitative thinking.
