Sensibility

1. Do "sensibility" and "This state of affairs" in the following context somehow mean "this approach"?


2. Does the blue sentence mean "an institutional theory of art that considers the framework of artworks but does not consider how these artworks are interpreted and evaluated"?


Context:

While the same sensibility underpins both his art and his advertising, his ability to communicate large emotions has ironically served Kaye better in advertising than in art. In the end, Kaye is more remarkable for bringing an emotional complexity to advertising that is better associated with art. This state of affairs serves to highlight the inadequacies of the institutional theory of art that I outlined in the Introduction which, as Tiffany Sutton has argued, shows how a work of art is framed but fails to address the issue of how the work is interpreted or evaluated.
