THE ART OF VIDEO GAMES

Helena Bendová

---

This book seeks to answer a fundamental question: Are video games art?

To do so, Helena Bendová unpacks this big inquiry through a series of more focused ones:

• In what ways are games and art similar, and where do they differ?

• Do games possess unique qualities that expand our understanding of what art can be?

• What are the aesthetic innovations specific to games and their creators?

Rather than settling on a simple yes or no, the book approaches the topic as an opportunity to examine the medium of video games in detail, analyzing its form, structure, expression, and evolving role in modern culture.

Whether games are ultimately defined as art or not, the investigation itself reveals how video games challenge, reflect, and redefine our artistic and cultural frameworks.
