On Art And Philosophy Of Art: The Role Of Art In Society: Anti-Art Discussion
商品資訊
商品簡介
The concept of art has radically changed. Art has ceased to be an exclusive sanctuary of the bourgeoisie, a sort of Schatzalp at Davos Platz for moneyed invalids. It has ceased signifying a spirituality, a higher calling, a mode of discernment and superiority for a narrow elite, something just for them, an alternative to the grubbing commerciality, mass uniformity and vulgarity of economic life in which all are implicated.
This is a provocative book concerned with the social significance of high-cultural activities. It is a rejection of the role of art as the highest manifestation of society's achievements, exposing art as the prerogative of elites and an enemy of the people.
The author argues that philosophy and aesthetics are responsible for illusions about art which give ordinary people an unjustified sense of inferiority. When these are penetrated -through historical and social investigation- the position of art as an enemy of the people becomes apparent.
The arguments of this book were for when it was written and first published. Being committed to this contingency was the critique of philosophy which the book contains. Therefore, in preparing a second edition, no effort has been made to update its arguments.
