Why is it worth understanding anything? Because there is no useless knowledge at all, and went to …. Sherlock Holmes with his “attic full of junk” – a ringing phrase, but Conan Doyle himself was a very versatile person.
Again, these longrides in the answers, in order to show an affectation of ostentation and tipo not “snobbery”.
Why do you need to understand art? The answer to this question can be formulated much more simply – art, as well as science, is a determining and influencing, I emphasize “influencing” factor for society. That is why they put a sign exactly between art and science. Through art, they learn wisdom, polish the pinnacle of creative thought, and fully develop their personality.
Human activity is aimed at consciously setting goals, so let's talk about art as a special kind of knowledge.
Cognition as such is a labor and a type of spiritual production-the acquisition of knowledge. Taken in the abstract , it acts as knowledge in general and is the subject of epistemology.
The specifics of art can be primarily found in comparison with other types of knowledge, and if science is a theoretical development of reality by a person, that is, it leads to forms of conceptual thinking, then art is always a figurative form.
Have you ever thought that the personal meaning of relationships between people, as well as the attitude to yourself and to this world, depends on art? In this case, this concept acts as a cognition of the essence of things and phenomena. The main specificity of art is artistic and imaginative perception, not conceptual, not theoretical. It is worth saying that the types of art differ in the nature of the epistemological attitude to reality. For example, architecture, painting, music, theater, cinema, and literature serve as a means of understanding the world; they are all ways to analyze the aspect of the relationship between art and reality.
In understanding the nature of art as self-consciousness, self-knowledge of society, man, and the free play of creative forces, a huge contribution was made by AND.Kant, for example, his critique of the “Faculty of Judgment” by F. Mehring. He considered it the main work in the field of aesthetics, since the provisions described in Kant's writings determined the nature and content of many subsequent aesthetic theories.
From nature, art differs in consciousness, premeditation, from science it differs as “being able” from “knowing”, as a practical ability from theoretical knowledge. Art is also important to distinguish from craft, the first is called-free, the second-for earnings. The first is viewed as a pleasant activity for the soul, the second as work and labor. However, work is not branded as creative, unlike art, which acts as a free manifestation of the creator's powers and has the goal of delivering aesthetic pleasure.
At one time, Hegel tried to create a “complete philosophy” of art. The subject of aesthetics, according to Hegel, is the vast realm of beauty, to be more precise – unlimited artistic creativity. Art, based on articles on the aesthetics of Hegel, becomes on a par with religion and philosophy. Being one of the deepest human interests, art is not the best form of knowledge, because the revealed truth in art is presented in a sensual form.
Meanwhile, returning to the materialistic, spiritual activity means that a person strives not only to satisfy purely material needs,but also to satisfy spiritual and aesthetic ones. And here, it is worth remembering Schiller, who first broke through Kant's subjectivity, but was never able to refute a sound materialistic understanding.
However, the main provisions of the materialist understanding of art in the most general form are as follows: life, nature, as objective reality constitute the real basis of art, which is the production of these two concepts. Art primarily reflects life, a reflection that captures the diversity of the essence of phenomena.
Understanding art in its cognitive function is necessary both for studying the general laws of human cognition, for understanding the place and role of art in the historical context and the system of forms of social cognition, and this allows us to understand the logic and diversity of artistic reflection of the world.
