Denis Dutton (1941-2010) claims that art and aesthetics are types of evolutionary adaptations that are shaped by natural selection and sexual selection. They have been derived from human instincts and the common nature of human beings. His theory of art is based on evolutionary theory. His last book, The art instinct: Beauty, pleasure, and human evolution, is a complete defense of this claim. One of the most important and most interesting of his defenses is the existence of common aesthetic tastes and artistic preferences that all humans throughout the world and in different historical periods share it. Based on the available commonalities in the artistic tendencies and preferences of the people, Dutton compiles a list of twelve criteria for the artistic affairs. He thinks that some of the criteria in the list are shaped by natural selection and the others by sexual selection.
