Where Should I Start with Philosophy of Art?

Hi, everyone. So, I’ve always been intrigued by what Art and aesthetics “are”. I remember from my Philosophy class (back in High School) that there is a branch of Philosophy that approaches the previous themes - I also remember my teacher saying that it is quite of a neglected area. Now that I have all the time in the World, I’d like to invest some time and attention to that. In your opinion, which works are better to start this journey (and why, if you’d like to elaborate)? Thank you all for your help. :)

This is a very broad question so I'll have to give a broad answer: get *Aesthetics: A Comprehensive Anthology* (by Cahn and Meskin) which is a 700-page doorstopper on the topic, but if you finish it, you'll be acquainted with the most important thinkers and movements. 

It's also a collection of primary texts but with very good introductions to each time period or thinker, so it's easy to follow along. 

I guess you're looking for singular names of authors however, so I'll just say: Schopenhauer.
