II.INTERACTION

E. Discussion

History of Art

- Horst Waldemar
Janson, who
published as H. W.
Janson, was a Russian
American scholar of
art history best known
for his History of Art. The History of
Art, “. we cannot escape viewing
 works of art in the context of time
and circumstance, whether past or
present.
- Western culture (11th -17th century)
the definition of art was anything
done with skill as the result of
knowledge and practice.
- Dutch Golden Age when artists
were free to paint in all sorts of
different genres and made a living
off their art in the robust economic
and cultural climate of 17th century
Netherlands.
- Romantic period ( 18th century),
Art began to be described as not just
being something done with skill, but
something that was also created in
the pursuit of beauty and to express
the artist’s emotions.
- The Avant-garde art ( These
characteristics are also all associated
with a term that is often used but
sometimes misconceived—avant-
garde. The French term, which
translates to “advance guard” or
“vanguard,” refers to something
visionary and ahead of its time.
- 1850s with the realism of Gustave
Courbet.
- Digital art, performance art,
conceptual art, environmental art,
electronic art, etc...
- The term “art” is related to the
Latin word “ars” meaning, art, skill,
or craft. The first known use of the
word comes from 13th-century
manuscripts. It have probably
existed since the founding of Rome.

What is Art?

Art is a highly diverse range of

human activities engaged in
creating visual, auditory, or
performed artifacts— artworks
—that express the author’s
imaginative or technical
skill,and are intended to be appreciated for their
beauty or emotional power.

Oldest documented forms of art are visual arts:

Images or objects like

painting, sculpture,
printmaking,
photography, and other
visual media.

Art may be characterized in terms of mimesis

(its representation of reality), expression,
communication of emotion, or other qualities.

Formalism is a concept in art theory in which

an artwork’s artistic value is determined solely
by its form, or how it is made.

The principles and elements of art. The

principles of art include movement, unity,
harmony, variety, balance, contrast,
proportion and pattern. The elements
include texture, form, space, shape, color,
value and line.

According to Wikipedia, “Art historians and

philosophers of art have long had classificatory
disputes about art regarding whether a
particular cultural form or piece of work should
be classified as art.”

The definition of art is open, subjective, and

debatable.

The purpose of works of art may be to

communicate political, spiritual or
philosophical ideas, to create a sense of beauty
(see aesthetics), to explore the nature of
perception, for pleasure, or to generate strong
emotions. Its purpose may also be seemingly
nonexistent.

Philosopher Richard Wollheim as “one of the

most elusive of the traditional
problems of human culture.”

Martin Heidegger have

interpreted art as the means by
which a community develops
for itself a medium for self-
expression and interpretation.

Philosophy of Art
The definition of art has
generally fallen into three
categories: representation, expression, and
form.

1.Art as Representation or
Mimesis. Plato first developed the idea of art as
“mimesis,” which, in Greek, means copying or
imitation.

“Good art” has had a profound impact on

modern and contemporary artists; as Gordon
Graham writes, “It leads people to place a high
value on very lifelike portraits such as those by
the great masters—Michelangelo, Rubens,
Velásquez, and so on—and to raise questions
about the value of ‘modern’ art—the cubist
distortions of Picasso, the surrealist figures of
Jan Miro, the abstracts of Kandinsky or the
‘action’ paintings of Jackson Pollock.” 

2. Art as Expression of Emotional

Content. Expression became important during
the Romantic movement with artwork
expressing a definite feeling, as in the sublime
or dramatic.

3. Art as Form.  Immanuel Kant (1724–1804)

was one of the most influential of the early
theorists toward the end of the 18th century. He
believed that art should not have a concept but
should be judged only on its formal qualities
because the content of a work of art is not of
aesthetic interest.

7 Reasons Why Art is Important

People appreciate art in different ways, whether

it’s music, fashion, poetry, or even paintings.
Humans have had a relationship with art, in one
form or another since time immemorial.

1. We are naturally artistic

2. Art’s crosses all divides

3. Art is good for you

4. It allows self-expression and self-

awareness

5. The possibility for personal benefits

6. Art allows for complex ideas to be broken

down

7. Assists with the recording of history

What Does Art Do?

A fundamental purpose inherent to most artistic

disciplines is the underlying intention to appeal
to, and connect with, human emotion. In its
broadest form, art may be considered an
exploration of the human condition, or a
product of the human experience. Art can
function therapeutically as well, an idea that is
explored in art therapy.

What Makes Art Beautiful?

Beauty in terms of art refers to an interaction

between line, color, texture, sound, shape,
motion, and size that is pleasing to the senses.

Aesthetics is the branch of philosophy that

deals with the nature and appreciation of art,
beauty, and taste. Aesthetics is central to any
exploration of art. The word “aesthetic” is
derived from the Greek “aisthetikos,” meaning
“esthetic, sensitive, or sentient. ”

-Immanuel Kant, the aesthetic experience of

beauty is a judgment of a subjective, but
common, human truth.

 Arthur Schopenhauer, aesthetic

contemplation of beauty is the freest and most
pure that intellect can be.

Art and Human Emotion

 Art is often intended to appeal to, and

connect with, human emotion. Artists may
express something so that their audience is
stimulated in some way—creating feelings,
religious faith, curiosity, interest, identification
with a group, memories, thoughts, or creativity.

Today we consider the earliest symbolic

scribblings of mankind to be art. As Chip
Walter, of National Geographic, writes about
these ancient paintings, “Their beauty whipsaws
your sense of time. One moment you are
anchored in the present, observing coolly. The
next you are seeing the paintings as if all other
art—all civilization—has yet to exist...creating
a simple shape that stands for something else—
a symbol, made by one mind, that can be shared
with others—is obvious only after the fact.
Even more than the cave art, these first concrete
expressions of consciousness represent a leap
from our animal past toward what we are today
—a species awash in symbols, from the signs
that guide your progress down the highway to
the wedding ring on your finger and the icons
on your iPhone.”

Archaeologist Nicholas Conard posited that

the people who created these images “possessed
minds as fully modern as ours and, like us,
sought in ritual and myth answers to life’s
mysteries, especially in the face of an uncertain
world.
 Art can be thought of as a symbol of what it
means to be human.
